圣诞歌《jingle bells》是詹姆斯·罗德·皮尔彭特作词作曲的一首儿童歌曲，1857年美国波士顿假日学校的学生在教堂有一场感恩节演唱，并很快成为了一首脍炙人口的经典圣诞歌曲。歌词如下：
Dashing through the snow，In a one- horse open sleigh.
Over the fields we go，Laughing all the way.
Bells on bobtails ring，Making spirits bright.
What fun it is to ride and sing，A sleighing song tonight.
OH，Jingle bells， jingle bells，Jingle all the way.
Oh，what fun it is to ride，In a one-horse open sleigh.
Jingle bells，jingle bells，Jingle all the way.
Oh，what fun it is to ride，In a one-horse open sleigh.
A day or two ago，I thought I take a ride.
And soon Miss Fanny Bright，was seated by my side.
The horse was lean and lank，Misfortune seemed his lot.
He＇s got into a drifted bank，And we， we got upset.
OH，Jingle bells， jingle bells，Jingle all the way.
Oh，what fun it is to ride，In a one-horse open sleigh.
Jingle bells，jingle bells，Jingle all the way.
Oh，what fun it is to ride，In a one-horse open sleigh.
A day or two ago，The story I must tell.
I went out on the snow，And on my back I fell.
A gent was riding by，In a one-horse open sleigh.
He laughed as there I sprawling lie，But quickly drove away.
OH，Jingle bells， jingle bells，Jingle all the way.
Oh，what fun it is to ride，In a one-horse open sleigh.
Jingle bells，jingle bells，Jingle all the way.
Oh，what fun it is to ride，In a one-horse open sleigh.
Now the ground is white，Go it while you＇re young.
Take the girls tonight，And sing this sleighing song.
Just get a bob-tailed nag，two-forty for his speed.
Hitch him to an open sleigh，And crack！ you＇ll take the lead.
OH，Jingle bells， jingle bells，Jingle all the way.
Oh，what fun it is to ride，In a one-horse open sleigh.
Jingle bells，jingle bells，Jingle all the way.
Oh，what fun it is to ride，In a one-horse open sleigh.
歌曲赏析：
《jingle bells》是一首曲调流畅、情绪欢快的美国歌曲。生动的歌词描绘了一群孩子冒着大风雪，坐在马拉的雪橇上，他们的欢声笑语伴着清脆的马铃声回响在原野，表现了孩子们热情奔放的性格，抒发了热爱美好生活的真挚情感。
歌曲为再现的二段体结构。第一乐段以“3”、“4”的同音反复为主，塑造了马儿奔跑、铃儿叮当的欢快的音乐形象，加上曲调的逐步上移，给人以推动感，刻画了孩子们随着雪橇冲破风雪、飞奔向前的情景。
歌曲的最后乐段的重复再现，并在结尾用一延长的、渐弱的高音“1”，结束了全曲，仿佛雪橇已渐渐远去，而那充满欢笑的歌声仍在风雪中回荡。
