Light in the darkness | Swedish Lucia Tradition

LUCIA - The night of light

In the very darkest time of the year, we honor the light. December 13 is a very special day here in Sweden when we celebrate the Lucia tradition. And for many years now, I have made it my own tradition to go out in the night to light up hundreds of candles with the intention to bring prayers of light and love our world. It's always a very special and magical feeling, even if this night turned into a snow storm (will show you some behind the scenes in the next video haha) The song that I'm singing is my own version of the traditional Lucia song. You can find the Swedish lyrics and a English translation down below (or in the subtitles). I hope you will like the song and the video. It's made with love to all of you ♥ Thank you so much for watching! ► MY SOCIAL MEDIA AND LINKS! • My Art & Jewelry Webshop: https://jonnajintonsweden.com • Merch shop - https://teespring.com/stores/jonna-ji... • Instagram: @jonnajinton http://www.instagram.com/jonnajinton • Wallpaper collection: https://www.photowall.com/designers/j... • Facebook Page - http://www.facebook.com/jonnajinton • Blog: https://jonnajintonsweden.com/blog/ ►LUCIA SONG LYRICS - SWEDISH Natten går tunga fjät runt gård och stuva. Kring jord som sol'n förlät, skuggorna ruva. Drömmar med vingesus under oss sia, tänd dina vita ljus, Sankta Lucia. Trollsejd och mörkermakt ljust du betvingar, signade lågors vakt skydd åt oss bringar. Drömmar med vingesus, under oss sia, tänd dina vita ljus, Sankta Lucia. Stjärnor som leda oss, vägen att finna, bli dina klara bloss, fagra prästinna. //Drömmar med vingesus, under oss sia, tänd dina vita ljus, Sankta Lucia.// ► LYRICS OF THE LUCIA SONG - ENGLISH TRANSLATION Night walks with a heavy step Round yard and house, As the sun departs from earth, Shadows are brooding. Dreams of wings rustling over us in prophesy, Light your white candles, Saint Lucia. Spells and dark powers, with light you subject. Guard of the blessed flames, protection for us brings. Dreams of wings rustling over us in prophesy, Light your white candles, Saint Lucia. Stars that lead us, the way to find, become your clear flares, fair priestess. Dreams of wings rustling over us in prophesy, Light your white candles, Saint Lucia.

Lucia is a tradition in Sweden where we bring light to the darkness. Since many years back I have always gone out in the middle of the Lucia night to light up hundreds of candles in the forest, with the intention to spread light into the world. Maybe you have seen my earlier lucia-films here on my YouTube. But this year was special. Just as the other lucia-nights I prepared to get out and light up my candles. But this night, the forest surprised me :) This film is for all the world. For all of you wonderful people out there ♥ I hope to be able to spread some light into your hearts. Thank you for taking the time to watch it. Sending you lots of love and light ♥ ► MY SOCIAL MEDIA AND LINKS! • My Art & Jewelry Webshop: https://jonnajintonsweden.com • Merch shop - https://teespring.com/stores/jonna-ji... • Instagram: @jonnajinton http://www.instagram.com/jonnajinton • Wallpaper collection: https://www.photowall.com/designers/j... • Facebook Page - http://www.facebook.com/jonnajinton • Blog: https://jonnajintonsweden.com/blog/ ► MUSIC Michele McLaughlin - Midwinter Memories Libera - Veni Veni Emmanuel Linda Lampenius - Sankta Lucia
