圣·露西亚节是瑞典著名的传统节日,在每年12月13日——瑞典寒冷而漫长的冬天中白天最短、夜晚最长的一个日子里庆祝,用以纪念“光明女神”圣·露西亚。
On the day,girls in Sweden dress up as Santa Lucia wearing a white dress and a crown of candles. Boys carry a candle and wear a kind of white pyjama. They wear hats that are pointy with golden stars on them.
这天,瑞典的女孩子会打扮成圣·露西亚的模样——身穿白色长裙,头戴插有蜡烛的花冠。男孩子手拿蜡烛,穿着白色长袍,戴着画有金色星星的帽子。
In Sweden people do not wear candles anymore because before girls caught their hair on fire very often. Today they use modern candles with batteries in them.
如今,人们已经不再在花冠上点蜡烛,因为女孩子们的头发经常会被火烧着。现在,在瑞典,人们更多地开始使用装有电池的蜡烛。
