Its Christmas Time... I think by Giannis Kotsiras

Anyone know the lyrics to this song, I think its called Its Christmas Time... Xristougenna ola yourtina.... something like that.. But its in english and greek.

Also, Kaiti Garbi sang a song that was similar to Silver Bells? If anyone can help me out on that, I would really appreciate it!

Efharisto poli!

"Ton Xristougennon kampanes". It's not just similar, it actually is "Silver Bells". I think Thanos Kalliris was the first to sing it in Greek, then Kaiti recorded her (better) version.

I believe you're talking about Cliff Richard's "Mistletoe and Wine". Mixalis Xatzigiannis did a cover of it some 10 years ago, it's called - surprise! - "Xristougenna".

It's Christmas time, mistletoe and wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see

Xristougenna, ola giortina
Antixoun ta osanna
Dentrakia, stolidia, tragoudi, xara
I agapi ksipnaei vathia stin kardia

P.S. Here are the complete lyrics:

Hristougenna (Mistletoe and Wine)
Mihalis Hatzigiannis

The child is a king, the carollers sing
The old has passed, there's a new beginning
Dreams of Santa, dreams of snow
Fingers numb, faces aglow

It's Christmas time, mistletoe and wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see

It's a time for giving, a time for getting
A time for forgiving and for forgetting
Christmas is love, Christmas is peace
A time for hating and fighting to cease

It's Christmas time, mistletoe and wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see

Hristougenna, ola yortina
Andihoun ta osanna
Dendrakia, stolidia, tragoudi, hara
I agapi xipnai vathia stin kardia

Sti gi mas irini, pandou kalosini
Ke s'olo ton kosmo adelfosini
Me pixida tis fatnis t'asteri
I aya mera elpida tha feri

Hristougenna, ola yortina
Andihoun ta osanna
Dendrakia, stolidia, tragoudi, hara
I agapi xipnai vathia stin kardia

It's Christmas time, mistletoe and wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see

The Greek part in Greek characters:

Χριστούγεννα, όλα γιορτινά
Αντηχούν τα ωσαννά
Δεντράκια, στολίδια, τραγούδι, χαρά
Η αγάπη ξυπνάει βαθιά στην καρδιά

Στη Γη μας ειρήνη, παντού καλοσύνη
Και σ' όλο τον κόσμο αδελφοσύνη
Με πυξίδα της φάτνης τ' αστέρι
Η άγια μέρα ελπίδα θα φέρει
