Originally titled as «The One Horse Open Sleigh»

«Jingle Bells» is one of the best-known^[1] and most commonly sung^[2] American songs in the world. It was written by James Lord Pierpont (1822–1893) and published under the title «The One Horse Open Sleigh» in September 1857. It has been claimed that it was originally written to be sung by a Sunday school choir for Thanksgiving, or as a drinking song.^[3] Although it has no original connection to Christmas,^[4] it became associated with winter and Christmas music in the 1860s and 1870s, and it was featured in a variety of parlor song and college anthologies in the 1880s.^[5] It was first recorded in 1889 on an Edison cylinder; this recording, believed to be the first Christmas record, is lost, but an 1898 recording also from Edison Records survives.^[6]

History[edit]

Composition[edit]

James Lord Pierpont who was the uncle of JP
Morgan, wrote «One Horse Open Sleigh» in 1857 and claimed to be a drinking song (it was always performed in blackface) It didn’t become a Christmas song until decades after it was first performed on Washington Street.
Pierpont, a supporter of the Confederacy, dedicated the song to John Ordway, an organizer of a minstrel blackface troupe called Ordway’s Aeolians.
Also during 1857, some slaves were forced to wear
«Jingle Bells» in order to deter them from running for the freedom.

It is an unsettled question where and when Pierpont originally composed the song that would become known as «Jingle Bells». A plaque at 19 High Street in the center of Medford Square in Medford, Massachusetts, commemorates the «birthplace» of «Jingle Bells», and claims that Pierpont wrote the song there in 1850, at what was then the Simpson Tavern. Previous local history narratives claim the song was inspired by the town’s popular sleigh races during the 19th century.^[7]

«Jingle Bells» was originally copyrighted with the name «The One Horse Open Sleigh» on September 16, 1857.^[8] The song was dedicated to John P. Ordway, Esq. The songwriting credit was listed as: «Song and Chorus written and composed by J. Pierpont.»

The song was republished in 1859 by Oliver Ditson and Company, 277 Washington Street, Boston, with the new title «Jingle Bells; or, The One Horse Open Sleigh». The sheet music cover featured a drawing of sleigh bells around the title.^[9] Sleigh bells were strapped across the horse to make the jingle, jangle sound.

The song was first performed on September 15, 1857, at Ordway Hall in Boston by the blackface minstrel performer Johnny Pell.^[10]

The song was in the then popular style or genre of «sleighing songs». Pierpont’s lyrics are strikingly similar to lines from many other sleigh-riding songs that were popular at the time; researcher Kyna Hamill argued that this, along with his constant need for money, led him to compose and release the song solely as a financial enterprise: «Everything about the song is churned out and copied from other people and lines from other songs—there’s nothing original about it.»^[5][10]

By the time the song was released and copyrighted, Pierpont had relocated to Savannah, Georgia, to serve as organist and music director of that city’s Unitarian Universalist Church, where his brother, Rev. John Pierpont Jr. served as minister. In August 1857, Pierpont married Eliza Jane Purse, the daughter of the mayor of Savannah. Pierpont remained in Savannah and never went back North.^[10][11]

The double-meaning of «upsot» was thought humorous, and a sleigh ride gave an unescorted couple a rare chance to be together, unchaperoned, in distant woods or fields, with all the opportunities that afforded.^[10] This «upset», a term Pierpont transposed to «upsot», became the climactic component of a sleigh-ride outing within the sleigh narrative.^[10]

Recordings and performances[edit]

James Lord Pierpont’s 1857 composition «Jingle Bells» became one of the most performed and most recognizable secular holiday songs ever written, not only in the United States, but around the world. In recognition of this achievement, James Lord Pierpont was voted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

«Jingle Bells» was first recorded by Will Lyle on October 30, 1889, on an Edison cylinder, but no surviving copies are known to exist.^[6] The earliest surviving recording was made by the Edison Male Quartette in 1898, also on an Edison cylinder, as part of a Christmas medley titled «Sleigh Ride Party».^[6] In 1902, the Hayden Quartet recorded «Jingle Bells». The song became a Christmas favorite in the early twentieth century.^[5]

In 1943, Bing Crosby and the Andrews Sisters recorded «Jingle Bells» as Decca 23281^[12] which reached No. 19 on the charts^[13] and sold over a million copies. In 1941, Glenn Miller and His Orchestra with Tex Beneke, Marion Hutton, Ernie Caceres, and the Modernaires on vocals had a No. 5 hit with «Jingle Bells» on RCA Victor, University 11353. In 1935, Benny Goodman and His Orchestra reached No. 18 on the charts with their recording of «Jingle Bells». In 1951, Les Paul had a No. 10 hit with a multi-tracked version on guitar. In 2001, House of Mouse version, sung by Wayne Allwine, Russi Taylor, and Bill Farmer. In 2006, Kimberley Locke had a No. 1 hit on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart with a recording of the song.

First song in space[edit]

«Jingle Bells» was one of the first songs to broadcast from space, in a Christmas-themed prank by Gemini 6 astronauts Tom Stafford and Wally Schirra. While in space on December 16, 1965, they sent this report to Mission Control:

C6: Gemini VII, this is Gemini VI. We have an object, looks like a satellite going from north to south, probably in a polar orbit. He’s in a very low trajectory traveling from north to south and has a very high climbing ratio. It looks like it might even be a … Very low. Looks like he might be going to reenter soon. Stand by one … You might just let me try to pick up that thing. (Music – Jingle Bells – from Spacecraft VI) P7: We got the too, VI. C6: That was live, VII, not tape. CC: You’re too much, VI.^[14]

The astronauts then produced a smuggled harmonica and sleigh bells, and with Schirra on the harmonica and Stafford on the bells, broadcast a rendition of «Jingle Bells».^[15][16] The harmonica, shown to the press upon their return, was a Hohner «Little Lady», a tiny harmonica approximately one inch (2.5 cm) long, by 3/8 of an inch (1 cm) wide.^[15]

Lyrics[edit]

Music historian James Fuld notes that «the word jingle in the title and opening phrase is apparently an imperative verb.»^[17] In the winter in New England in pre-automobile days, it was common to adorn horses’ harnesses with straps bearing bells as a way to avoid collisions at blind intersections, since a horse-drawn sleigh in snow makes almost no noise. The rhythm of the tune mimics that of a trotting horse’s bells. However, «jingle bells» is commonly taken to mean a certain kind of bell.

Jingle Bells

Although less well-known than the opening, the remaining verses depict high-speed youthful fun. In the second verse, the narrator takes a ride with a girl and loses control of the sleigh:

A day or two ago
I thought I’d take a ride
And soon, Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side,
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
He got into a drifted bank
And then we got upsot.^[a]
|: chorus 

In the next verse (which is often skipped), he falls out of the sleigh and a rival laughs at him:

A day or two ago,
The story I must tell
I went out on the snow,
And on my back I fell;
A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh,
He laughed as there I sprawling lie,
But quickly drove away. Ah!
|: chorus 

In the last verse, after relating his experience, he gives advice to a friend to pick up some girls, find a faster horse, and take off at full speed:

Now the ground is white
Go it while you’re young,
Take the girls tonight
and sing this sleighing song;
Just get a bobtailed bay
Two forty as his speed^[b]
Hitch him to an open sleigh
And crack! you’ll take the lead.
|: chorus 

Notes to lyrics

Original lyrics[edit]

The two first stanzas and chorus of the original 1857 lyrics differed slightly from those known today. It is unknown who replaced the words with those of the modern version.^[17] Underlined lyrics are the removed lyrics from the original version. Bold lyrics are the new lyrics in the current version.

Melody[edit]

The original 1857 version of «Jingle Bells» featured a substantially different chorus. The progression of descending chords in the original refrain (A♭–E♭/G–Fm–C–D♭–A♭/E♭–E♭⁷–A♭; in Roman numeral analysis, I–V⁶–vi–V/vi–IV–I⁶
₄–V⁷–I) bears some resemblance to that of Pachelbel’s Canon. The verses, on the other hand, have mostly the same melody (with some minor simplifications) in modern renditions as they did in 1857. The origin of the simpler, modern refrain is unknown, but it dates back at least 1898, when the oldest surviving phonograph recording of the song was released through Edison Records.

The «Jingle Bells» tune is used in French and German songs, although the lyrics are unrelated to the English lyrics. Both songs celebrate winter fun, as in the English version. The French song, titled «Vive le vent» («Long Live the Wind»), was written by Francis Blanche^[18][19] and contains references to Father Time, Baby New Year, and New Year’s Day. There are several German versions of «Jingle Bells», including Roy Black’s «Ein kleiner weißer Schneemann».^[20]

Parodies and homages[edit]

I Asked 64,182 People About “Jingle Bells, Batman Smells”. Here’s What I Found Out. Tom Scott (presenter), June 2020

Like many simple, catchy, and popular melodies, «Jingle Bells» is often the subject of parody. «Jingle Bells, Batman Smells» has been a well-known parody since the mid-1960s,^[21] with many variations on the lyrics.^[22] Bart Simpson sings this version on The Simpsons, the first time being in the episode «Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire» (December 17, 1989).^[23]

Parodies or novelty versions of «Jingle Bells» have been recorded by many artists, and include Yogi Yorgesson’s «Yingle Bells», Da Yoopers’ «Rusty Chevrolet»,^[24] Bucko and Champs’ «Aussie Jingle Bells», The Three Stooges’ «Jingle Bell Drag», and Jeff Dunham’s «Jingle Bombs», performed in his «Achmed the Dead Terrorist» sketch. Another popular spoof of the song is «Pumpkin Bells», a «Pumpkin Carol» which celebrates Halloween and the «Great Pumpkin». It originated in The Peanuts Book of Pumpkin Carols,^[25] a booklet based on the Peanuts comic strip and published by Hallmark Cards in the 1960s.^[26]

The Australian «Aussie Jingle Bells» written by Colin Buchanan, broadly translates the idea of the original song to the summertime Christmas of the Southern hemisphere:

Aussie Jingle Bells

Dashing through the bush, in a rusty Holden ute,
Kicking up the dust, esky in the boot,
Kelpie by my side, singing Christmas songs,
It’s Summer time and I am in my singlet, shorts and thongs

Oh! Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,
Christmas in Australia on a scorching summers day, Hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut!,
Oh what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden ute.^[27]

Other verses add further details about what happens when the ute arrives at the family Christmas.

«Jingle Bell Rock» by Bobby Helms pays homage to «Jingle Bells», directly referencing the source song’s lyrics, but with a different melody. Originally recorded and released by Helms in a rockabilly style, «Jingle Bell Rock» has itself since become a Christmas standard.^[28]

The first notes in the chorus have become a motif that has been inserted into recordings of other Christmas songs, most notably at the beginning and end of Bing Crosby’s «It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas»; a guitar passage at the end of Nat King Cole’s «The Christmas Song»; and Clarence Clemons performing a saxophone solo in the middle of Bruce Springsteen’s «Merry Christmas Baby». A piano is also heard playing these notes at the end of Springsteen’s version of «Santa Claus Is Comin’ to Town». A slow version of the chorus opening forms the conclusion of Stan Freberg’s 1957 «Green Chri$tma$», interspersed with cash-register noises. Mariah Carey utilizes a bit of the melody in her song «When Christmas Comes». Joni Mitchell’s 1971 song «River» begins with a melancholy version of the chorus on piano.^[29] In 2010 the Israeli satirical website Latma produced a parody titled «Jihad Bells», where the Palestinian Minister of Uncontrollable Rage explains the persecution of Christians in the Muslim world.^[30]

Пожалуй, самой популярной рождественской и новогодней песней является песня Jingle Bells. 

Послушать другие рождественские песенки для детей на английском языке с русским переводом можно здесь: переходи по ссылке.

Новогодняя песня Jingle Bells (джингл беллз) родилась в 1857 году. Ее автор, James Lord Pierpont (Джеймсом Лордом Пьерпонтом). Изначально песня была написана для исполнения хором воскресной школы на День Святого Благодарения и называлась «The One Horse Open Sleigh» (Лошадиная повозка с открытыми санями). Текст песни напрямую не связан с Рождеством, но в 1860-1870-е года ее начали активно использовать как Christmas song (рождественскую песню), и сегодня уже сложно представить зимние праздники без этой задорной мелодии. Она звучит повсюду: мы слышим ее и по радио, и по телевидению, и на школьных утренниках или, просто, в детских электронных игрушках.

Jingle Bells даже стала одной из первых песен, которые прозвучали из космоса, благодаря пранку американских астронавтов в 1965 году.

В конце этой статьи мы приведем примеры оригинальных аранжировок песни.

Часто мы слышим только 1-2 куплета и припев песни, где звучит текст, как на иллюстрации выше. Особенно, в варианте песни для детей. Но полный текст песни значительно длиннее.

Посмотрите и послушайте видео (чуть ниже). Оно сопровождается английскими субтитрами с текстом песни. А если не все слова в песне будут понятны, то перевод текста вы можете прочитать в следующем разделе этой статьи.

Это видео поможет вам разучить песню вместе с вашими детьми. А ниже мы приводим инструкцию, как просто научить ребенка играть эту мелодию на ксилофоне. Под таблицей с переводом песни вы можете скачать файл с текстом песни, чтобы потом его распечатать. В распечатке мы приводим полный текст песни на английском языке, а также его художественный перевод. Так вы сможете петь эту песни с детьми и на английском и на русском языках. Напомним, что с детьми чаще поют только первые два куплета и припев. Зато повторять их можно неограниченное количество раз, как это и делают малыши в этом видео:

Русский перевод песни

Давайте разберем текст песни Джингл белс (Jingle Bells) на английском и переведем ее на русский. Надо сказать, что у песни, помимо подстрочного перевода, есть несколько поэтических переводов, авторство которых принадлежит Татьяне Сикорской и Самуилу Болотину, Ю.Хазанову, Георгию Васильеву и Алексею Иващенко, Анастасии Лебедевой и Евгению Живицыну, Игнату Соловьеву. Полагаем, что это не полный список авторов.

Куплет 1
Бьёт в лицо нам снег,
Ветерок свистит,
Но задорный смех
Душу веселит.
С песней по полям
Радостно лететь,
Колокольчик нам
Помогает петь.

Припев
Динь-динь, бом,
Динь-динь, бом, — Весело звенит,
Сани мчатся с ветерком,
Снег из-под копыт.

Новый год, Новый год
В гости к нам идет
Весело все вместе мы
Встретим Новый год.

Куплет 2
День ли, два тому
Решил я — прокачусь,
И вот с мисс Фанни Брайт
На санях я лечу.
Хоть сильным был наш конь,
Но очень невезуч —
На резком повороте вдруг
Влетели мы в сугроб!

Припев
Динь-динь, бом,
Динь-динь, бом, — Весело звенит,
Сани мчатся с ветерком,
Снег из-под копыт.

Новый год, Новый год
В гости к нам идет
Весело все вместе мы
Встретим Новый год.

Куплет 3
День ли, два тому, —
Скажу, не утая, —
Я вышел погулять в снегу
И шлёпнулся плашмя!
А мимо джентльмен
катился на санях,
Он глянул на меня и прочь,
Смеясь, умчал в поля!

Припев

Куплет 4
Пока лежит снежок,
Пока ты молодой —
Девиц зови под вечер ты
И песни с ними пой!
Найди коня, чтоб мчал
В час двадцать с лишним миль,
А коли санки тянет он —
Все девушки — твои!

Припев

Комментарии к тексту

to jingle — звенеть

Jingle bells — звенят бубенцы, звенят колокольчики. Обращаем ваше внимание на то, как правильно произнести слово bells. Часто студенты делают ошибку и оглушают окончание -s и произносят его как «с» — «белс». По правилам, после звонкой согласной «L» произносим окончание -s, как звонкое «з» [z], т.е. bells [belz]. К слову, запомните это правило и используйте его, когда вы добавляете окончание -s к существительным во множественном числе и как окончание 3-го лица ед.числа глагола во времени Present Simple.

В наши дни слово «джингл» (jingle) используется в русском языке как заимствование  и обозначает короткую музыкальную фразу-заставку с вокалом. Его использют для оформления радио- или телевизионного эфира, в видеороликах, в рекламе. Многим из нас, например, хорошо знакома музыкальная фраза из рекламы «М-м-м, Данон». Это и есть музыкальный джингл.  .

sleigh [ sleɪ ] — сани (произносится как «слэй»).

Надо сказать, что в английском языке, не так уж часто встретишь это слово. Но мы подскажем вам, как легко его запомнить. Все вы не раз слышали про вид спорта — бобслей. Название этого вида спорта происходит от вида саней, которые в нем используются — боб. Т.е. bobsleigh — это сани «боб». Подобный вид саней был создан еще в 1904 году. А назвали их «бобами» от англ. глагола «to bob«, который переводится как «двигаться вверх-вниз или в стороны для увеличения скорости».

Bobtail — переводится как «купированный хвост». Скорее всего, слово «бобтейл» вам известно по одноименной породе собак.

Староанглийская овчарка получила такое название потому, что в Англии существовал закон, по которому размер налога пастуха за собаку определялся длиной собачьего хвоста, и хитрые английский пастухи, чтобы не платить налог, купировали хвосты своим пастушьим собакам.

to bob — коротко стричь, в т.ч. коротко подрезать хвост лошади или собаке

Two fourty as his speed.  Дословно это строчка переводится как «2.40 — его скорость».

Не совсем обычная для нас мера измерения скорости, а именно: за сколько времени конь пробегает одну милю. В нашем случае:

1 миля за 2 минуты 40 секунд

1 английская миля = 1609,344 м

Методом сложных вычислений мы получили, что скорость коника в песне — 36 км/час.

fun — удовольствие

To have fun — получить удовольствие

To have a lot of fun — получить огромное удовольствие. We all had a lot of fun. — Мы все здорово провели время.

В песне: What a fun it is to ride…! — Какое это удовольствие, кататься на …! / Как весело кататься на …!
