《We Wish You A Merry Christmas》,中文译为《我们祝你圣诞快乐》,是英国的西南部在十六世纪流行的英文颂歌(或称圣诗)。
这首圣诞颂歌起源于英国传统,传统社会富人在平安夜那天给颂歌者圣诞食物,如无花果布丁(figgy pudding),很像现在的圣诞布丁(Christmas pudding)。这是为数不多的提及庆祝新年的英国传统颂歌,并往往是颂歌者唱的最后一首歌,以祈盼圣诞佳节一片喜气欢欣。

We wish you a merry Christmas
We wish you a merry Christmas
We wish you a merry Christmas
And a happy New Year.
Glad tidings we bring To you and your kin;

We won't go until we get some
We won't go until we get some
