Tell me what happened to Christmas in Russia.
Where has it gone or where was it lost?
We still has that spirit, the gifts and the rush, but
Why it`s The New Year that metters the most?
I remember the story about that Jesus,
All of merry traditions connected with it.
We still do love them, just explain me why this is
31st of December when they take the lead.
The 7th of Janiary is Christmas in Russia,
That the Christians here ought to celebrate.
But most of the people are drunken and crushed and
Those who are not are just tired and forget!
I am not religious, so why do I care?
Because we forgot what the holidays is:
This isn`t about carouse, prepare
For having a long night of eating all these...
The Chrismas is holiday when you visit your parents
When you pay your attention, bestow your smile
When you may say you`re sorry for being in absence,
But so glad to be here even if for a while!
You may spend the Christmas with friends or with strangers,
But the meaning of holiday still is the same:
That above and beyond our differences and dangers
We should still love each other without a shame!
