what's the 12th day of christmas

On the 12th day of Christmas, the tradition dictates that twelve drummers drumming should be celebrated, representing the drummers who accompanied the Three Wise Men on their journey to Bethlehem. This tradition is based on the story of the Nativity, where the Three Wise Men traveled to the stable where Jesus was born, accompanied by their servants and musicians. The twelve drummers drumming symbolize the sound of their drums, which could have been used to announce their arrival or provide a festive atmosphere.
