On the first day of Christmas my true love gave me, a carton of Ultra Milk.
On the second day of Christmas my true love gave me, Two Cockatoo.
On the third day of Christmas my true love gave me, Three Cecak.
On the fourth day of Christmas my true love gave me, Four Rambutan.
On the fifth day of Christmas my true love gave me, Five Durian.
On the sixth day of Christmas my true love gave me, Six sticks of Sate.
On the seventh day of Christmas my true love gave me, Seven Orchids blooming.
On the eighth day of Christmas my true love gave me, Eight Garuda Flying.
On the ninth day of Christmas my true love gave me, Nine Bajaj.
On the tenth day of Christmas my true love gave me, Ten jars of Jamu.
On the eleventh day of Christmas my true love gave me, Eleven Wayang Waving.
On the twelfth day of Christmas my true love gave me, Twelve Komodo Dragons.
