SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN (CI)

LYRICS

You better watch out

You better not cry

Better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is coming to town

He's making a list

And checking it twice;

Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice

Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you're sleeping

He knows when you're awake

He knows if you've been bad or good

So be good for goodness sake!

O! You better watch out!

You better not cry

Better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is coming to town

Santa Claus is coming to town

WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS (P3-P4-P5)

THE STORY OF JACK O'LANTERN

Jack, it seems, was a bad man. He kept all his money to himself. He wouldn't help people for all of his life.

Sembla ser que Jack va ser un home molt dolent. Es guardava tots els seus diners per a ell solet i mai en la seva vida no va ajudar ningú .
When Jack died, he wasn't allowed into Heaven because he was such a miser: a person who wouldn't share his money.

Quan en Jack va morir no va se acceptat al cel per ser una persona molt mísera i no voler compartir els seus diners.
It seems that Jack also had played tricks on the Devil, who wouldn't let him into hell, either. Jack was stuck. He had to walk the earth, holding a lantern, until Judgment Day.

Sembla que tampoc va ser acceptat a l'infern perquè també havia enganyat al mateix diable. Així que va ser condemant a vagar per la Terra, sostenint una llanterna, fins al dia del Judici Final.

This is the story that has been told by the Irish people who went to America in the 1800s. They carved their turnips into the face of "Jack-of-the-lantern" to remind themselves what happened to people who were misers. And in the fall, pumpkins are much easier to find than turnips.So that's why Americans today carve their pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns

Aquesta és la història que els irlandesos que van emigrar a Amèrica al 1800 han anat explicant des d'ençà. Ells feien la cara de Jack a un nap per recordar el que li passava a un quan era dolent i míser. A la tardor era molt més fàcil trobar carbasses que naps, així que aquesta és la raó per la qual els americans avui fan la cara de Jack en carbasses.

Easter is the sacred celebration of Christ's resurrection from the dead. Easter is nowadays a religious celebration, but Easter was originally a pagan festival.
Today, children hunt colored eggs and place them in Easter baskets along with the modern version of real Easter eggs -- those made of plastic or chocolate candy.
The Easter Bunny is not a modern invention. The symbol originated with the pagan festival of Eastre. The goddess, Eastre, was worshipped by the Anglo-Saxons through her earthly symbol, the rabbit.
From the earliest times, the egg was a symbol of rebirth in most cultures. Eggs were often wrapped in gold leaf or, if you were a peasant, colored brightly by boiling them with the leaves or petals of certain flowers. The Germans brought the symbol of the Easter rabbit to America.

La Setmana Santa és la celebració sagrada de la ressurrecció de Crist d’entre els morts. Actualment és una celebració religiosa però originalment era una festa pagana.
Avui, la canalla caça ous colorejats i els col·loca en cistells junt amb la moderna versió d’ous de Setmana Santa – aquells fets de plàstic o xocolata.
El conill de Setmana Santa no és una invenció moderna. El símbol va ser originat amb la festa pagana de “Eastre”. La deesa, Eastre, va ser adorada pels anglosaxons a través del seu símbol terrestre, el conill. Els alemanys van dur el símbol del conill de Setmana Santa a Amèrica.
Des de fa molt de temps, l’ou és un símbol de reneixement en moltes cultures. Els ous eren freqüentment embolcallats amb paper d’or o, si eres un camperol, el colorejaves amb brillant bullint-lo amb fulles o pètals de flors.

APRIL'S FOOL

April Fools' Day is celebrated in many countries on April 1. On this day you can play a trick on someone.

El Dia dels Innocents és celebrat en molts països el dia u d’abril. Durant aquest dia pots fer bromes a la gent.

SAINT PATRICK

Saint Patrick’s Day is celebrated each year on March 17th. In Ireland, Saint Patrick’s Day is a national holiday. Although it began in Ireland, Saint Patrick’s Day is celebrated in countries around the world. People with Irish heritage remind themselves of the beautiful green countryside of Ireland by wearing green and taking part in the festivities. Saint Patrick’s Day is usually celebrated with a parade.

Sant Patrick és celebrat cada any el disset de març. A Irlanda és una festa nacional. Malgrat que va començar a Irlanda, Sant Patrick és celebrat en països d’arreu el món. Les persones amb arrels irlandeses recorden el bonic verd dels camps d’Irlanda vestint de verd i participant a les festivitats. Sant Patrick se celebra habitualment amb una desfilada.
