At a time when the frost already stings
the cheeks
and every candle on the advent wreath already shines,
take each other in your arms.
Whether it's friends, colleagues or parents.

After all,
Christmas is not only about generosity,
but above all about reciprocity.
Open your heart to others,
it's not an expensive gift at all.

Such a big little thing
or any other favor
pleases your neighbor
and comfort all his heartache.

The one with a little mulled wine in the cup,
you feel the taste of pliable gingerbread,
now and then you selflessly help someone
I believe that you will still enjoy Christmas.
