This Japanese lullaby is a traditional song sung by girls far away from home as they worked as nannies in upper class households. The gentle sounds of flute and wind chimes support the plaintive quality of the melody, presented in canon and simple harmonization over the arpeggios in the piano or optional marimba accompaniment.

Familiar words, new melody. Ruth's cheerful a cappella setting of the yuletide text accentuates the peace on earth lyric, adding a harmonically rich bridge on just those words. Crisp choral ding dong entrances, a melodic twist in the middle, and a tuneful final descant decorate the otherwise strophic verses. Add to the festivity (and anchor the minor-key tonality) with optional tubular bells or chimes.
