Mozart actually did use that melody in his Sonata for violin and Keyboard in G (Sonata #18) but he did not write it. This tune is much older than that. It could be as old as the 15th century, although there is no proof of that either. It just speculation...

∙ 14y ago"Deck the Halls" (original English title: "Deck the Hall") is a traditional Yuletide and New Years' carol. The "fa-la-la" refrains were probably originally played on the harp. The melody is Welsh and belongs to a winter carol, Nos Galan. In the eighteenth century Mozart used the tune to "Deck the Halls" for a violin and piano duet. But the lyrics we sing now are American in origin and are from 1903
