All about Christmas



Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!
Christmas is today!
Christmas a Christian festival, celebrating the birth of Jesus.

We celebrate “mass on Christ day”(Christmas)
The Anglo-Saxon geōl, the winter solstice Christmas?
Hmm, it has always been a circular family holiday.

A mythical figure named Santa Claus plays the pivotal role usually called “father Christmas”
Sextus Julius Africanus identified December 25th as the birth of Christ
The day of the birth of an “unconquerable sun.”

Christmas Eve so pleasant to my soul
Exchange of gifts on Christmas
Christmas decorations and trees put around the houses and cities.

Christmas a pleasant event to my souls
Where all sort of instruments are heard
All playing a song which starts with; “long time ago in Bethlehem.”

Christmas is today!!!
