In early versions of this song, “my true love sent” me the gifts. However, a 20th-century variant has “my true love gave to me”; this wording has become particularly common in North America. In one 19th-century variant, the gifts came from “my mother” rather than “my true love”.
The gifts associated with the final four days were often reordered. For example, the pipers may be on the ninth day rather than the eleventh. The pipers, however, miss out entirely in this version.
Let’s see what the Furkids have for their Eleventh Day. Ready? It’s time to get comfy, press play on the jukebox and scroll leisurely down to the illustrated lyrics.
