釋文 Text of Calligraphy:
歲暮深寒境界遷，幾家饒興席爐煙。
鈴聲響徹祈安世 ， 暖閣妝成尋夢園。
星歷列， 夜漫綿，西窗遙演大挪天。
三王已覲天之子 ， 可否驚濤渡穩然。

題識 :馬桂綿老師詩鷓鴣天聖誕節即興。辛丑冬譚傑志神父於香港賀節並書。

At the end of the year, the deep cold realm moved, and several houses raised smoke from the stove.
The ringing of the bell resounds to pray for peace in the world, and the warm room is decorated as a dream garden.
The star is aligned, the night is long, the west window remotely shows the great heavenly drama.
The three kings have already paid their visit to the Son of Heaven, can they traverse the stormy waves safely?
