It’s the time of the year where every one of us who are out of our own home state goes back to be with the family and loved ones. Yes, Christmas is here. But wherever you may celebrate nothing beats the celebration in the village. The joy of celebrating Christmas in the village is something which we can never experience in towns or cities.
Here’s a Naga Christmas song by NagaGenous that perfectly sums up why Christmas is best in the village. You may want to pack your stuff after watching this video!
Here’s the English translation of the lyrics –
Christmas is best in my village
It doesn’t snow in my village
Santa claus is unfamiliar to us
Though we don’t get christmas cake
yet christmas is best in my village
Reindeers dont roam our forest
Exchanging christmas gifts is not our tradition
Bethlehem is a place we’ve never seen
Yet christmas is best in my village
The divine aroma of Axone
And delicious sticky rice bread
Piping hot, millet and job’s tears
How i long for christmas in my village
Jesus is born in my village
Our roosters crow with happiness
Our cow kissed the baby Jesus
Leaves its little calves
Come now let’s go to my village
There we shall find pure joy
There is love and peace
Christmas is best in my village
