Een Wit Kerstmis
Ik droom weg van een witte kerstmis
Weet je, zoals die van weleer
Waar de boomtoppen glinsteren en kinderen fluisteren,
wachtend op de arrenslee, in de sneeuw
Ik droom echt van een wit kerstmis
bij elke kerstkaart die ik schrijf
k' wens je al het beste en vrolijke feesten,
en dat elke kerst een witte kerst mag zijn.
A White Christmas
