The Twelve Days of Christmas

"The Twelve Days of Christmas" is a traditional Christmas song that lists a series of increasingly grand gifts given over twelve days, beginning on Christmas Day. Each day, the gifts from the previous days are repeated, creating a cumulative pattern. The song is often interpreted as a festive celebration of the holiday season, with symbols and references that may have historical, religious, or cultural significance. Its repetitive structure makes it memorable and fun, celebrating the spirit of giving and the joy of the holiday period.
