The partridge in the pear tree
 

"The first day of Christmas my true love gave to me...."

The partridge in the pear tree represents Christ 

The "True Love" one hears in the song is not a smitten boy or girlfriend but Jesus Christ, because truly Love was born on Christmas Day. The partridge in the pear tree also represents Christ because that bird is willing to sacrifice its life if necessary to protect its young by feigning injury to draw away predators.
