Letra Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

A música Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas foi escrita por Hugh Martin e Ralph Blane para o filme Meet Me in St. Louis em 1944, onde foi interpretada por Judy Garland. Em sua forma original, a música tinha letras mais melancólicas, que foram revisadas para uma versão mais otimista a pedido de Garland e de Tom Drake, seu co-estrela no filme.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on, our troubles will be miles away.

Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.

Through the years we all will be together,
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.

And have yourself a merry little Christmas now. (omit this line if not repeating)
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.
