Below is another video I made a few years ago. This time the Christmas takes place on a beach.
Es schneielet ganz fyn und lys
It's snowing very delicately and quietly
ond alli Wägli wärdet wyss,
and all the ways get white
si wärdet wyss und weich und still,
they get white and soft and quiet
wöu s Wiehnachts-chind uf d'Ärde will.
because the Christmas child wants to come to earth.
Es falle Stärndli weich und lys,
Small stars are falling softly and quietly,
Wyt über s Feld und über d Wis'
far over the field and over the meadow.
Sie säge: Chindli mach di zwäg!
They say: Child get ready
S'Christchind isch schon ufem Wäg.
The Christ child is already on its way.
