Christmas Wish
A TIMELESS CHRISTMAS STORY OF HOPE AND BELIEF
And our Christmas dreams do come true…
Snow falls softly, lights twinkle on every street, hearts draw near, as the year winds down and we are once more reminded of the magic of the season – when memories shine brighter, old traditions take center stage, and the simple magic of Christmas feels close enough to touch.
With Christmas Wish, Lyra Boru envelopes us in a world aglow with wonder, love and merriment, bringing that timeless magic to life. Her song embraces you like a warm blanket of nostalgia as you sit by the Christmas tree, a cup of cocoa in hand and crackling fire – inviting you to pause and remember the joy and enchantment that make this season so special.
A MUSICAL WINTER WONDERLAND
From the bouncy opening strings and the twinkling piano melody, the song carries listeners into a serene snowy landscape, drawing on beloved elements of the Christmas tradition. Gentle sleigh bells sparkle through the chorus, strings shimmer with Yuletide cheer and warm brass paint the scene while Lyra’s vocals add the final touch like icing on a festive cake.
The lyrics of Christmas Wish invoke the long treasured magic and belief that around Christmas, anything can be possible, miracles can still happen – if we only believe.
Longing for Magic
Christmas Wish was born from a deeper place – a longing for that childlike wonder within, to believe in that magic – even if just for a moment and to shake the heavy weariness of the world.
It is also Lyra’s quiet homage to her beloved Grandmother, the pure embodiment of Christmas spirit, whose love, warmth, and joy shaped the very heart of the season for her.
A WISH THE WORLD NEEDS
Christmas Wish is more than a holiday song — it is Lyra’s personal wish for the world. A reminder that even amid uncertainty, there are moments of beauty worth holding onto. A call to remember the warmth, the joy, the togetherness that make this season shine.
This is her Christmas wish:
that we may all feel the light return,
that the magic may never fade,
and that hope may find its way back into every heart.
May magic fall with every snowflake, if we only just believe.
