Hey!

I just wanted to wish you all a beautiful Lucia day!

Natten går tunga fjät,
runt gård och stuva,
kring jord som sol'n förlät
skuggorna ruva.

Då i vårt mörka hus
stiger med tända ljus,
Sankta Lucia, Sankta Lucia!

"Mörkret skall flykta snart
ur jordens dalar",
så hon ett underbart
ord till oss talar.

Dagen skall åter ny
stiga ur rosig sky,
Sankta Lucia, Sankta Lucia.

It's a pretty song. And i have to memorize the lyrics until tomorrow.
