Tonight when it is dark 
           Saint Nicholas may come. 
   He loves to bring a big surprise. 
          He gives the children toys.

                           Cookies, apples, 
              Balls and games, 
             Bells and whistles, 
              Dolls and trains. 
          Surprises for the boys.
          Surprises for the girls. 
     Saint Nicholas is our friend in                       heaven. 
       He is the children's saint.

We thank you, good Saint Nicholas! 
We thank you for the toys! 
We thank you, good Saint Nicholas! 
You bring us many joys.
