Câtă şindrilă pe casă,
Atâţia galbeni pe masă.
Ca viţa de vie
La Sfânta Marie
Anul Nou ce vine,
Cu zile senine
Tare ca piatra
Iute ca săgeata
Tare ca fierul
Iute ca oţelul.
Şi ca pomii să-nfloriţi
Şi ca ei să-mbătrâniţi
Şi ca toamna cea bogată
Fie casa-ndestulată.
La anul şi La mulţi ani!
Prof. Mariana Fortoeş
Easter
is the time of the Christian
year
They
believe that Jesus, the son of God, died for
everyone's wrong-doings and then came
back to life three days later to defeat death
and evil: so if you believe in Him you will
live forever in Heaven.
For Christians, the full Easter period lasted
for a long time. Easter officially starts
with
on
46 days
before Easter Day. (Lent lasts for 40 days
but you don't count the Sundays!) Then 39
days after Easter Day, Christians celebrate
Ascension Day, when they remember Jesus
going back into Heaven and promising to
come back to earth one day. Easter officially
ends 49 days after Easter Day with the
Christian Festival of Pentecost or Whitsun,
when Christians remember that God sent his
Holy Spirit to help Christians. So Easter is a
very busy time for Christians!
In many languages, the words for "Easter"
and "Passover" are identical or very similar.
