We Three Kings of Orient Are is a Christmas carol written in 1857 by Reverend John Henry Hopkins. He wrote both the words and the music as part of a Christmas pageant for the General Theological Seminary in New York City. It first appeared in his "Carols, Hymns and Song" in 1863.
The song has since become common and popular among many Christian denominations. As a result of its simple melody, the song is sometimes parodied by children, who sing, "We Three Kings of Orient are, tried to light a rubber cigar..." or "...selling knickers in Trafalgar Square..." or even "...one in a taxi, one in a car, one on a scooter beeping his hooter..."
