The "nine ladies dancing" were the nine fruits of the Holy Spirit found in Galatians 5:22-23: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.*
Sometimes these of been called the fruits, but it should be called fruit (singular). The world offers none of these, no matter how much money you have. Especially in this day and age, the only way to have true love, joy and peace is to have Christ as your Saviour.
I pray that today, the Lord will help every person seek Jesus Christ for true love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.
God bless you all

* - I don't know how valid that this was the meaning behind this carol, but if it brings us back to remembering why we celebrate the time, then so be it!

Attention to those who have nothing to offer other than mindless drill or just want to harass me: DROP DEAD!
To the others whom I have enjoyed over the years, don't waste you breath on those morons. We have better things to do like contributing to society in a positive way.
