Christmas carols are a part of the holiday tradition. In this blog post, we will be exploring 12 Irish carols that you can sing alongside your family and friends to spread some Christmas cheer. One thing is for sure: these Christmas songs will transport you back to Ireland!
The first carol is Jingle Bells. This song was published in 1857, and although it’s often thought of as an American holiday tune, the lyrics were actually written by a Canadian doctor named James Lord Pierpont. The second Christmas song we will be exploring today is Silent Night! Although this famous German hymn has been around since 1862, its origins are still debated to this day. It’s said that when Franz Josef Haydn composed the melody he had no idea what words would accompany his work—so you can see why people have so many different theories about how Silent Night came into being!

* Oftentimes, people don’t know the lyrics to Irish carols. I’ll provide them here: * - -O Holy Night (Holy night) was sung by a choir of angels high in Heaven. The stars were shining o’er Bethlehem, where Jesus Christ lay on hay; Joseph and Mary stood looking up with wonder at what they could not understand.* Away In A Manger (lullaby): away in a manger no crib for his bed the little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head.* What Child Is This?: What child is this who coming strong in so many lands and languages? Who can this be that everyone has heard about but only few have seen?* I Saw Three Ships: I saw three ships come sailing in on Christmas day, On Christmas Day in the morning.
