Light in the darkness | Swedish Lucia Tradition

  • Опубликовано: 11 дек 2019
  • In the very darkest time of the year, we honor the light.
    December 13 is a very special day here in Sweden when we celebrate the Lucia tradition.
    And for many years now, I have made it my own tradition to go out in the night to light up hundreds of candles with the intention to bring prayers of light and love our world.
    It's always a very special and magical feeling, even if this night turned into a snow storm (will show you some behind the scenes in the next video haha)
    The song that I'm singing is my own version of the traditional Lucia song.
    You can find the Swedish lyrics and a English translation down below (or in the subtitles).
    I hope you will like the song and the video. It's made with love to all of you ♥
    Thank you so much for watching!

    ►LUCIA SONG LYRICS - SWEDISH
    Natten går tunga fjät runt gård och stuva.
    Kring jord som sol'n förlät, skuggorna ruva.
    Drömmar med vingesus under oss sia,
    tänd dina vita ljus, Sankta Lucia.
    Trollsejd och mörkermakt ljust du betvingar,
    signade lågors vakt skydd åt oss bringar.
    Drömmar med vingesus, under oss sia,
    tänd dina vita ljus, Sankta Lucia.
    Stjärnor som leda oss, vägen att finna,
    bli dina klara bloss, fagra prästinna.
    //Drömmar med vingesus, under oss sia,
    tänd dina vita ljus, Sankta Lucia.//
    ► LYRICS OF THE LUCIA SONG - ENGLISH TRANSLATION
    Night walks with a heavy step
    Round yard and house,
    As the sun departs from earth,
    Shadows are brooding.
    Dreams of wings rustling over us in prophesy,
    Light your white candles, Saint Lucia.
    Spells and dark powers, with light you subject.
    Guard of the blessed flames, protection for us brings.
    Dreams of wings rustling over us in prophesy,
    Light your white candles, Saint Lucia.
    Stars that lead us, the way to find,
    become your clear flares, fair priestess.
    Dreams of wings rustling over us in prophesy,
    Light your white candles, Saint Lucia.

    I'm grew up in America and when I was in school (it was a private school) we had a celebration of Lucia Day. I didn't understand it at the time. But for some reason when they asked for volunteers I shot my hand up and they dressed me as the bride for the ceremony. Watching this video has made me remember this moment. I still don't know much about this holiday and would love to learn more if anyone is will to share information with me? :)

      When you are a mix and have no idea what to do. I am part Spanish, and HATE it. Want nothing to do with it. The other is Italian. Not that interested and all I can find is Witchcraft, but even then, thats secretive and only taught in Italy. Anything online is false from what I learned.
      ......where do I go..... I hate being mixed, I have no idea where I belong and I hate some parts of my heritage. I looked into Norse Heathenism but not many are welcoming to me because I am not Scandinavian.... It hurts so much when you are lost and long to be apart of something you are happy with and belong to.

      Winter Heathen same here. I’m so mixed I don’t feel like I belong anywhere at all. My grandfather was from mainland Spain. My other grandfather was from the Canary Islands were I was also born, but he had moor heritage too. My grandmothers where English and French. The English one had Asian heritage. I feel like an outsider in my own country and wherever I go. It is the reason why I have always been attracted to countries with ancient, rich cultures. I seek what I lack.

    I wish I could go back in time to when most people lived like this, outside the cities in small houses without electronics etc. I wish I could have the chance to see Sweden as it was before when the ceremonies, holidays and the culture still played a big role for everyone, if that's understandable. I live in Sweden, on the countryside but it's still not the same "Cozy" feeling as it is in old books, story's and movies. I would love to live like that for a week and be self-sufficient! Thank you for posting things like this, it makes me feel nostalgia even if I've never experienced something like this before

    Translated from Italian:
    ""Memory of Saint Lucia, virgin and martyr, who kept the lamp lit, as long as she lived, to meet the Bridegroom, and in Syracuse in Sicily led to death for Christ, she deserved to have access to the wedding of heaven with Him and to have the Light that knows no sunset."

We weren't designed to have petty arguments and kill each other, but I believe that we were created to help the earth, to support its nature and to watch it thrive.
