Christmas Carols

Posted by Claudia Moser on 9:08 PM in , ,


Sometime ago, Sush from First do no Harm, asked me of some traditions from Romania, and this week's BFF theme, gave me this opportunity. My favourite Christmas songs are the traditional carols, and one famous singer is Stefan Hrusca. I shared 3 songs with you, I know you don't understand the words but I am sure you will understand the meaning, the music, the feeling. Enjoy, I know I did tonight!

Dearest Claudia...I'm listening with tears in my eyes to the last song. The othes were lovely as well, but this last song touches my heart and needs no translation.
Thank you so so so much for sharing.
Hope you are feeling better and on the mend!
Hugs~

Motto

"A story is not like a road to follow … it's more like a house. You go inside and stay there for a while, wandering back and forth and settling where you like and discovering how the room and corridors relate to each other, how the world outside is altered by being viewed from these windows. And you, the visitor, the reader, are altered as well by being in this enclosed space, whether it is ample and easy or full of crooked turns, or sparsely or opulently furnished. You can go back again and again, and the house, the story, always contains more than you saw the last time. It also has a sturdy sense of itself of being built out of its own necessity, not just to shelter or beguile you."
