Away in a Manger
Lyrics adapted by Nik Bear Brown
https://soundcloud.com/nik-bear-brown

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head;
The stars in the heavens looked down where He lay,
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing, the Baby awakes,
But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes.
I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
And stay by my side until morning is nigh.

Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever, and love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care,
And fit us for heaven, to live with Thee there.

The shepherds are watching their flocks through the night,
When angels appear in a radiant light.
“Fear not,” they declare, “tidings joyful we bring,
For born in a manger is Christ, Heaven’s King.”

The wise men are guided by heaven’s bright star,
They journey through deserts, they travel afar.
With gifts in their hands and with worshipful hearts,
They kneel at the cradle where salvation starts.

Oh, teach us, dear Jesus, to walk in Your way,
To trust in Your mercy each night and each day.
With hearts full of wonder, Your praises we sing,
For You are our Savior, Redeemer, and King.

Away in a Manger

God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen

Lyrics adapted by Nik Bear Brown

God rest you merry, gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay,
Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas Day,
To save us all from Satan's pow'r
When we were gone astray.

O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy.

From God our heav'nly Father
A blessed angel came,
And unto certain shepherds
Brought tidings of the same;
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by name.

O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy.

"Fear not," then said the angel,
"Let nothing you affright;
This day is born a Savior
Of a pure virgin bright,
To free all those who trust in Him
From Satan's pow'r and might."

O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy.

The shepherds at those tidings
Rejoiced much in mind,
And left their flocks afeeding,
In tempest, storm, and wind,
And went to Bethlehem straightway,
This blessed Babe to find.

O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy.

Now to the Lord sing praises
All you within this place,
And with true love and brotherhood
Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Christmas
All other doth deface.

O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy.

Three wise men journeyed onward,
Led by a shining star,
To seek the Holy Infant,
Who’d come to heal afar.
With gifts of gold and incense sweet,
They worshipped at His feet.

O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy.

The humble manger held Him,
The Lord of earth and sky,
Who came to bring salvation,
And hear His people’s cry.
Rejoice, for through His holy birth,
He brings us peace on earth.

O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy.

Oh, let us join the angels,
Their song of praise to sing,
To honor Christ, our Savior,
The world’s eternal King.
With hearts uplifted, voices raise,
Proclaim His wondrous ways.

O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy.

Happy New Year 
Happy New You By songwriter Edwin H. Balder

 As the clock ticks down, we gather near, Memories of the past, laughter and tears. From the moments that shaped us, to the ones we let go, We raise our glasses to the highs and lows.

 In the stillness of the night, dreams take flight, We’ve got a brand new canvas, let’s paint it right.

New Year’s dawn, a fresh start calling, Embrace the light, forget the falling. With every heartbeat, a promise to keep, What we want to be will be, awake dreams form thier sleep

happy new year
happy new year 
happy new.......You

From the old year’s ashes, we rise anew, Holding tight to hope, to see things through. We look back with fondness, but forward we see, A tapestry of joy, our destiny.

 In the whisper of the night, stars align, Resolution’s whisper, it’s time to shine.
 New Year’s dawn, a fresh start calling, Embrace the light, forget the falling. With every heartbeat, a promise to keep, What we want to be will be, awake dreams form thier sleep

happy new year
happy new year 
happy new.......You

 Time’s a river, ever flowing, Catch the current, keep on growing. In the mirror of tomorrow, see the what's right, Let the past be a lesson, guide our fight
happy new year
happy new year 
happy new.......You
 New Year’s dawn, a fresh start calling, Embrace the light, forget the falling. With every heartbeat, a promise to keep, What we want to be will be, awake dreams form thier sleep


happy new year
happy new year 
happy new.......You


 Midnight strikes, the old fades away, A new horizon, we greet the day. With hearts wide open, we take the lead, In the game of life, we are all we need.


So here’s to new beginnings, let’s make it right, With love and courage, take on any fight. Raise your voice, let’s sing as one, For every ending brings a New Year’s dawn.
happy new year
happy new year 
happy new.......You
happy new year
happy new year 
happy new.......You

Happy New You By songwriter Edwin H. Balder

For The Self Named Queen
All I Want For Christmas Is For You To Get Away From Me by songwriter Edwin H. Balder

 I don't want a lot for Christmas, There's just one thing that's my plea. I don't care about the presents, Underneath the Christmas tree.


 All I want for Christmas is for you to go away, Forget the holiday cheer, I don't want to play. No more awkward family gatherings, No more faking what folks see
All I want for Christmas is for you to get away from me .................All I want for Christmas is for you to get away from me  ...(get away from me)

 I won't ask for much this Christmas, Just a silent, peaceful night. I’m not looking for new friendships, Or for things to turn out right.

 I just want to find some space, Without seeing your face. Make my wish come true, All I want for Christmas is to get away from you

All I want for Christmas is for you to go away, Forget the holiday cheer, I don't want to play. No more awkward family gatherings, No more faking what folks see
All I want for Christmas is for you to get away from me .................All I want for Christmas is for you to get away from me  ...(get away from me)

 Shiny lights break the night but I can’t lie
Your shadow's always there and I don't know why

Wanna feel the rhythm take me away

But the echo of you always seems to stay

hoping this christmas it finally gets through

All I want for Christmas is to get away from you......All I want for Christmas is to get away from you

 Christmas, won't you bring me what I really need, Make this person disappear, help me pull this weed

 All I want for Christmas is for you to go away, Forget the holiday cheer, I don't want to play. No more awkward family gatherings, No more faking what folks see
All I want for Christmas is for you to get away from me .................All I want for Christmas is for you to get away from me  ...(get away from me)

 Santa, won't you bring me what I really need, Make this person disappear, help me pull this weed

 All I want for Christmas is for you to go away, Forget the holiday cheer, I don't want to play. No more awkward family gatherings, No more faking what folks see
All I want for Christmas is for you to get away from me .................All I want for Christmas is for you to get away from me  ...(get away from me)

...........................

 No more awkward family gatherings, No more faking what folks see
All I want for Christmas is for you to get away from me .................All I want for Christmas is for you to get away from me  ...(get away from me)

All I Want For Christmas Is For You To Get Away From Me by songwriter Edwin H. Balder

Merry Christmas To You!

Cowboy Christmas Eve by songwriter Edwin H. Balder

Underneath the starry skies, on this silent night, A cowboy rides the open plains, bathed in silver light. With a lonesome heart, he wanders through the whispering pines, Dreaming of a Christmas Eve, where love and hope entwine.

 Just a cowboy Christmas, out here on my own, With the cattle and the heavens, I ain't really alone. Though I wish for someone to hold me tight, I got the memories and the stars so bright. Just a Cowboy Christmas eve tonight (Cowboy Christmas eve tonight)
 The fire crackles softly, casting shadows on the ground, As I sit by the campfire, a peaceful silence found. I think about the loved ones, miles and years away, And wonder if they’re dreaming of a cowboy's holiday.

Just a cowboy Christmas, out here on my own, With the cattle and the heavens, I ain't really alone. Though I wish for someone to hold me tight, I got the memories and the stars so bright. Just a Cowboy Christmas eve tonight (Cowboy Christmas eve tonight)

The fire crackles softly, casting shadows on the ground, As I sit by the campfire, a peaceful silence found. I think about the loved ones, miles and years away, And wonder if they’re dreaming of a cowboy's holiday.

 Just a cowboy Christmas, out here on my own, With the cattle and the heavens, I ain't really alone. Though I wish for someone to hold me tight, I got the memories and the stars so bright. Just a Cowboy Christmas eve tonight (Cowboy Christmas eve tonight)
 Snowflakes gently falling, decorating all I see, A reminder of the simple joys this night can always be. I whisper to the twilight, hoping they can hear, That though I’m far away tonight, my heart is always near.

 As the night grows colder, and the winds begin to moan, I hum a Christmas melody, feeling not so alone. For I carry with me always, the love from long ago, In the spirit of this season, I let that feeling show.

 Just a cowboy Christmas, out here on my own, With the cattle and the heavens, I ain't really alone. Though I wish for someone to hold me tight, I got the memories and the stars so bright. Just a cowboy Christmas eve, before  Christmas Day..............Just a cowboy Christmas eve, before  Christmas Day.

 So here’s to every cowboy, under the starlit sky, May you find your peace and joy as this holy night goes by. For even in the silence, love can find its way, Just a cowboy Christmas eve, before  Christmas Day..............Just a cowboy Christmas eve, before  Christmas Day.

Christmas Snow by Hot Cookie

Nibriell is the pseudonym under which I sign my musical and literary works. I was born in Romania, a beautiful country in Eastern Europe, but I also live in the UK. For personal reasons and symbolism, the pseudonym is inspired by the names Saint Nicholas (Ni) and Archangel Gabriel (briell). 

     As for my musical activity, I do not define myself through traditional terms such as artist, musician, or composer, but rather as a music creator. This term is much more suitable for my musical activity. I have only one regret: not being born with the talent to sing or possess a musical voice. 

     However, my passions for music and literature have been cultivated with interest throughout my life. With the advent of AI in our lives, it has been very successful in producing high-quality vocalizations, which instantly encouraged me to start creating melodies. 

     Therefore, in my creative workshop, DAW software, music editing, and AI technology are the tools through which I express my vision. By using AI to generate the distinctive voice of my pieces and recreate the sounds specific to traditional or archaic instruments, I bring to life the stories I present to you. 

     My entire creation, from one end to the other, tries to tell a story, whatever it may be. From myths and legends worldwide to stories I create, they are dressed in melodies and harmonies that exceed language and culture, touching a universal chord of human emotion. With each composition, my goal is to open a window to imaginary worlds, inviting the listener to explore ancestral myths, personal narratives, or those already existing worldwide. 

     Using a mix of modern sounds and traditional elements, I aim to create a bridge between the past and the present, between the real and the fantastic, offering the listener an auditory experience and an emotional and spiritual journey.

     So, Nibriell is the pseudonym that unites all these creative sides and expresses the desire to create and the belief that art, in all its forms, is a vehicle for understanding, compassion, and connection among people, regardless of their origins or borders. This is the path I have chosen to follow, one in which every note and word contributes to creating a more extensive work of all humanity, an ode to the beauty and complexity of life.

     Although AI plays an essential and decisive role in my work, it does not define its direction or quality at all. I entirely write the texts and melodic lines, and the voice generated by it is the product of my strict vision and supervision.

In the shadows of Apache Junction, at the foot of the majestic Superstition Mountains, sits a weathered hacienda. This desert oasis is home to an enigmatic figure, a songwriter whose journey reads like a long, dusty road of honky-tonk bars and college cafeterias. He wasn't chasing fame or glitter; instead, he chose the soul-crushing beauty of music for music's sake.

Years spent hunched over sticky barroom tables and scribbling lyrics on napkins earned him a reputation—not in the spotlight but in the back rooms where deals are made. He wrote melodies that found their way into the hearts of stars who had lost their own muse. He sold his creations for cash, with no recognition, but the whisper of his songs carried the weight of his soul.

Finally, he bought this piece of desert paradise—a stable income from his timeless songs allowed him to live comfortably, if anonymously. Here in this hacienda, with his family beside him and the mountains as his backdrop, he found the peace to write hits under his own name. He chuckled at the irony that now, without chasing fame, he could create music that brought him joy.

In the end, it was never about the spotlight. It was about the journey, the stories, and the songs that wrote themselves through his life. As the sun set behind the Superstitions, casting long shadows over the hacienda, he strummed his guitar and sang—content, unknown, and unburdened by the world's gaze.
