Do not confuse carols (folk songs) with carols (songs of religious (church) content) - dedicated to one of the most important Christian holidays - Christmas. Carols appeared, in which archaic motifs and images were intertwined with biblical ones (birth, life, torment, death and resurrection of Christ). A special place is occupied by church carols of authorial, book origin (Silent Night, Holy Night; New joy has become; and others). According to H. Luzhnytskyi, "with carols, the history of Ukrainian theater enters the phase of the so-called magic of the word. The spirit of primitive man's imagination was mythical and magical, and carols in their genesis are primitive magical formulas, where the conjurer is an actor, because during spell, he plays the role of the future self, or higher power."

As a rudiment of ancient magical rituals, carols and bounties called on the gods (pagan "Oy Dazhdbozhe!", transformed into "Oh God!") to give the master (or mistress, servant, girl) good health and economic prosperity (which in ancient times was the obverse and reverse of the same medal), associated with a good harvest, favorable conditions for cultivating the land, profits for the lord (especially livestock). By means of artistic similes, epithets, metaphors, the owner, members of his family are glorified and praised, to whom they wish good fortune, health, love, good marriages, etc.

Тематика, мелодика, форма колядок и щедривок и обычаи колядников выражают признаки глубокой старины. Само же хождение группы колядников с определенным ролевым распределением, а порой и с инструментальным сопровождением, наталкивает на мысль о сходстве с группами веселых скоморохов княжеских времен. Темами колядок и щедривок являются земледелие и семья – ее быт и благополучие (другие темы занимают относительно небольшое место: мотивы военно-охотничьи, фантастически-сказочные, любовные, библейские). Все эти песни величественного содержания поются именно хозяину, хозяйке, парню, девушке.
