Saint Lucia was a saint because of her kindness and her love. She was an Italian Christian who lived in Sicily in the 4th century. Some people believe she once visited Sweden. December 13th is her feast day.
圣露西亞是一個以仁愛聞名的圣徒。公元4世紀時居住在西西里,是一個意大利基督徒。有些人說她曾去過瑞典,12月13日是她的齋日。
The way she became a saint was that a man loved her but Lucia didn't like him Lucia's mother asked her to marry the man but she refused so the man said he would burn her. But Lucia prayed to God to have the power to survive the fire. Because of her kindness her wish was granted. The man then got a sword and stuck itsintosLucia's throat.
圣露西亞成為圣徒的過程有這樣一個說法———一個男人愛上了圣露西亞,圣露西亞卻并不愛他。她母親要把她嫁給這個男人,她拒絕了。這個男人就要把她燒死。圣露西亞向上帝祈禱,祈求上帝賜予她力量度過這一劫難。由于她的仁愛,祈禱應驗了。圣露西亞沒被燒死,于是那個男人又拿出一把劍,刺進圣露西亞的喉嚨,殺死了她。
There is also another story for her being a saint which goes like this.
關(guān)于這個故事還有另一個版本的類似傳說———
Saint Lucia was a very kind person and a man loved her very much but she didn't like him. The thing the man loved most about Saint Lucia was her eyes. Then she gave him her eyes but a miracle happened she grew back her eyes but this time they were even more beautiful than ever. The man asked for those eyes but she refused so the man killed her with a knifesintosher heart.
圣露西亞是一個很有愛心的姑娘,有個男人非常愛她,圣露西亞卻并不愛他。男人最愛的是圣露西亞的眼睛,圣露西亞就把她的眼睛給了他。然而奇跡發(fā)生了:圣露西亞又長出了一雙新的眼睛,比以前的眼睛更漂亮更迷人。男人還想要這雙眼睛,圣露西亞拒絕了。于是男人用一把刀子殺死了她
