the twelve days of christmas *
-
hristiyanlarin unlu bir christmas $arkisi . melodisi daha hemen ba$indan tanidik gelecektir zaten . sozleri $u tarzdir:
*
on the first day of christmas my true love sent to me:
a partridge in a pear tree
on the second day of christmas my true love sent to me:
2 turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree
on the third day of christmas my true love sent to me:
3 french hens
2 turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree
on the fourth day of christmas my true love sent to me:
4 calling birds
3 french hens
2 turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree
(...)
*
bu $ekilde artarak gider . bu $arki ne$eli bir $arkidir ama, sozlerinin belirli bir amaca yonelik yazildigini soyleyenler de yok degildir . $oyle ki, burada bahsi gecen "true love", hristiyanlarin tanrisidir, "me" ise vaftiz edilmi$ insandir . dolayisiyla burada bahsi gecen her hediye bir $eyi simgeler . mesela "turtle doves"un eski ve yeni ahit'leri, "calling birds"un matta, markos, lukas ve yuhanna'yi ve "lords a-leaping"in 10 emir'i simgelemesi gibi .

apple hazretlerinin geleneksel yılbaşı hediyesidir. ilk önce 12 days of christmas uygulaması ücretsiz olarak bir güzel indirilir, daha sonra 26 aralık'a kadar beklenir. bu tarihten itibaren 12 gün boyunca apple'ın seçtiği uygulamalar yine ücretsiz şekilde güzelce indirilir. tabii bu sırada "umarım bende hali hazırda yüklü olan bir uygulama değildir..." diye de içten geçirilir.

bunun hint versiyonunu yıllar önce dinlemiştim ve belleğime öyle bir kazınmış ki, hâlâ melodisini duyduğumda "..and a totally insufficient dowry" diye eşlik ediyorum.
