The twelve days of xmas song is a popular song that has each verse built on top of the previos ones.
There are twelve verses each describing a gift given by "my true love" each of d twelve days of xmas.
The song is said to b of french origin but was first published in England in 1780 in a small book meant for children,"mirth without mischief"
The twelve days in d song are the twelve days starting xmas day, the lyrics of the song was also intented as a catechism song for the children to help them stand in faith.
Quite number of people does not even know the full lyrics and meaning of this song and so many young people tends to chew their mouths(so to say) in a certain verse.
Here is the full lyrics of the song to help people who finds it difficult to sing it along with their peers on xmas carol day. And as many that knows it should help and contribute and correct my mistakes.
