\t\t\t\tOh tintinnabulation, tintinnabulation, tintinnabulation …<\/p>\n

…\u00a0all the way! Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh. Hey! Say THAT (tintinnabulation)\u00a0three times. Fast. New word for me is …<\/p>\n

tintinnabulation. Say it with me: Tintinnabulation<\/a>\u00a0\\tin-ti-nab-yuh-LAY-shuhn\\ – the ringing or sounding of bells, or a jingling or tinkling sound as if of bells.<\/p>\n

Our Rascal<\/a> (when she isn’t dreaming of sugar plums), has her own little bit of holiday tintinnabulation she\u00a0brings with her.<\/p>\n

Hear the sledges with the bells
\nSilver bells!
\nWhat a world of merriment their melody foretells!
\nHow they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
\nIn the icy air of night!
\nWhile the stars that oversprinkle
\nAll the heavens, seem to twinkle
\nWith a crystalline delight;
\nKeeping time, time, time,
\nIn a sort of Runic rhyme,
\nTo the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
\nFrom the bells, bells, bells, bells,
\nBells, bells, bells
\nFrom the jinglng and the tinkling of the bells.<\/p>\n
