On Christmas 1914
In the muddy trench
Both German and French
Stop fighting for a day
To celebrate the Holidays
Both German and Brits
Exchanged each other gifts
In the most violent event of human history
Both sides living in misery
German, British, and French gun fire ceased as both sides showed humanity and peace
