Santa Claus is releasing a new and updated version of the all-time classic ‘Jingle Bells’, and this one’s just for the lovely people of Delhi!

So here are the lyrics of the latest chartbuster on the block, ft Santa Claus. Join the chorus already?

Smoggy air, smoggy air, smoggy all the way
Oh what pain it is to breathe, in Delhi if you stay

Dashing through the smog, to the gods I pray
As I walk on Delhi roads, coughing all the way

Bells of warning ring, and we jump up in fright
It's no fun to walk or run in the park tonight

Smoggy air, smoggy air, smoggy all the way
Fry your lungs if you please, in Delhi if you stay

Mere reindeer mar gaye, mere phephre jal gaye
Samose saare peele se grey ho gaye

Driving in this smog, tweeting all the way,
Par tweet se smog jaata nahi hai re

Crop jalao, dhua udhao, PM 10 badhao
Subha uthke smog dekho toh haaye haaye chillao!

Smoggy air, smoggy air, smoggy all the way
Oh what grief it is to breathe, in Delhi if you stay

Shut the schools, the children say
Their lungs are going cray
We can't breathe, or walk or run, make this go away!

Mere kamre mein, dhua dhua dikhein
Koi air purifier hum ko de de

Dilliwale suno, carpool toh karo,
Beijing mat bano, aur humein jeene do

Hawa saaf, hawa saaf, hawa saaf karo
Humari nahi, toh khud ke lungs ki baat suno!
