A classic example of a cumulative song, the lyrics detail a series of increasingly numerous gifts given on each of the twelve days of Christmas (the twelve days that make up the Christmas season, starting with Christmas Day). The carol, whose words were first published in England in the late eighteenth century, has a Roud Folk Song Index number of 68. A large number of different melodies have been associated with the song, of which the best known is derived from a 1909 arrangement of a traditional folk melody by English composer Frederic Austin. "The Twelve Days of Christmas" is a cumulative song, meaning that each verse is built on top of the previous verses. There are twelve verses, each describing a gift given by "my true love" on one of the twelve days of Christmas. There are many variations in the lyrics. The lyrics given here are from Frederic Austin's 1909 publication that established the current form of the carol.[3] The first three verses run, in full, as follows: On the first day of Christmas my true love sent to me A partridge in a pear tree On the second day of Christmas my true love sent to me Two turtle doves, And a partridge in a pear tree. On the third day of Christmas my true love sent to me Three French hens, Two turtle doves, And a partridge in a pear tree. Subsequent verses follow the same pattern. Each verse deals with the next day of Christmastide, adding one new gift and then repeating all the earlier gifts, so that each verse is one line longer than its predecessor. • four calling birds • five gold rings • six geese a-laying • seven swans a-swimming • eight maids a-milking • nine ladies dancing • ten lords a-leaping • eleven pipers piping • twelve drummers drumming The earliest known publications of the words to The Twelve Days of Christmas were an illustrated children's book, Mirth Without Mischief, published in London in the late eighteenth century, and a broadsheet by Angus, of Newcastle, dated to the late eighteenth or early nineteenth centuries. *Entry and exit music in the video are played by Brooks.
