From a Welsh tune to a Christmas song
Deck the Halls uses the Welsh melody NOS GALAN, associated with New Year celebrations. Thomas Oliphant supplied the English words that helped give the tune its familiar Christmas identity.

The repeated refrain invites group participation, while the tune also works without words in piano and instrumental settings. Its Welsh origins remain part of the story behind a song now familiar to English-speaking audiences well beyond Wales.
