This is the traditional Greek New year's Carol.
New Year's Carol
Start of the month and start of the year,
My tall rosemary bush!
And start of the year, a good year,
In church, in church with the holy throne!
Start of the year, when Christ came
Most holy and spiritual;
To walk on earth
And to make our heart good.
St Basil is coming
And welcomes all of us,
He comes from Caesarea,
And you milady are noble woman!
He holds an icon and writing paper,
Sugar candy and a baked cake.
The writing paper and the ink,
Look at me the young brave lad!
The ink wrote on the paper,
My fortune all it wrote,
And the paper talked to me,
My white St Basil!
How beautiful.
