This song is one of the most popular pieces from the famous musical, The Sound of Music. It is often sung as a Christmas song, though it doesn’t mention the holiday, nor does this scene take place near winter.

Maria sings (invents?) this song for the von Trapp children after they’re frightened by a thunderstorm in the middle of the night. The performance is actually interrupted by the arrival of Captain von Trapp, who disapproves of Maria’s music and ‘coddling’. He appears just as she begins, “When the dog bites,” and the entire song falters. He then refuses her request for fabric to make play clothes for his children.

The song resumes later when she realizes a way to get around his refusal by making clothes out of old curtains in her bedroom.

Julie Andrews My Favorite Things Lyrics

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

[Verse 2]
Cream-colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

[Verse 3]
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things

[Chorus]
When the dog bites, when the bee stings
When I’m feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don’t feel so bad

[Verse 4]
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
