We Wish You A Merry Christmas (Navajo Lyrics)

Here are the lyrics to the famous Christmas Carol "We Wish You A Merry Christmas," as performed by the Fruitland Gospel Trio. The original author of the song is unknown, as is the translator of this song into the Navajo Language.

The literal translation of each word or words below the Navajo words is provided in English to help learn the wrods to the song.

I hope hearing this story in a Native American language will add to your enjoyment this holiday season! Yá'át'ééh Késhmish (Merry Christmas)!

That was awesome! I have only heard Navajo spoken once before, when I had the pleasure and the honor of meeting some of the Navajo Code Talkers of the United States Marine Corps! God bless the Navajo!
