Legend has it that ‘The 12 Days of Christmas‘ was written during a time of persecution in England between 1558 and 1829 as a Catechism song for young Catholics who were forbidden to practice their faith.
Each number signifies a teaching of the Catholic faith.
The song can be understood on two different levels:
1) The literal meaning of the words, which appear harmless enough to a stranger, and
2) The hidden meaning behind those words, which expressed the religious beliefs of a people who could have been killed on account of their Catholic faith.
