Irish Songbook: The Wren Song

Happy St. Stephen's Day Everyone a.k.a Boxing Day!

Today is what the Irish call: Lá Fhéile Stiofán or Lá an Dreoilín, which translates into English as "The Wren Day" or "Day of the Wren". It has to do with some Irish legends linking Jesus and the wren... something religious anyway.

But anywho, there is a popular children's rhyme that goes along with St. Stephen's Day and I thought I'd share it with all of you! It was made popular by the Irish group, The Clancy Brothers.

Enjoy!

Happy Holidays!
