This song is available on Lauren Mayer's Winter Songs.
Festivals of light,
Candles glowing oh so bright
Different people have different ways
To celebrate winter holidays
Candles warm up the night
In festivals of light
Diwali’s a Hindu festival, gatherings for one and all
Rows of lights to decorate, get all dressed up and celebrate
Chanukah’s the ‘feast of lights’, where oil kept glowing for eight nights
Dreidls and latkes help us show a miracle from long ago
Festivals of light,
Candles glowing oh so bright
Different people have different ways
To celebrate winter holidays
Candles warm up the night
In festivals of light
There’s Las Posadas in Mexico, from house to house the children go
Singing songs along the street, then break piñatas full of treats
Kwanzaa is the holiday for African-American culture
Light the candles, which are seen in colors of red, black and green
Festivals of light,
Candles glowing oh so bright
Different people have different ways
To celebrate winter holidays
Candles warm up the night
In festivals of light
