    Here he's here as you can see
    Hanging on a holly tree,
    A bunch of ribbons by his side
    And the Araglen boys to be his guide.
    When the boys finish their song the woman of the house gives them some money. They put the money into a purse and in the evening the boy who has the purse divides the money equally among the boys.
