Actually I am not so sure it was written to be a Christmas Carol at all... I believe it had different words when it first appeared on the earth (some believe it's from the 1400's because of the "fa la la la" that is in the lyrics and seem to have some kind of resemblance to the old style of music (the madrigals back then)

GAHHH! It's a CHRISTMAS CAROL!

It means "put a bunch of holly branches all over the walls." "Deck" means to dress in, as in, "she was decked in satin and diamonds." "The halls" means, specifically, the hallways and entrance hall of the house, or, large houses often also have a large, high-ceiling room called "the hall" which is used for large parties, dinners and social gatherings. "Boughs" are leafy branches, and "holly" is a type of plant traditionally associated with Christmas, like mistletoe and pine.
