I ka mua, hoʻolauleʻa ʻia nā lā ma mua o ke Kālā Nui me nā ʻahaʻaina lehulehu. Eia nō naʻe, i ka kenekulia 19, ua lawe ʻia kahi kuʻuna hou i Iceland mai Denmark, kahi i makemake ʻia e nā hale kahu palaoa kūloko, ʻo ia hoʻi, e hoʻopau i kahi ʻano pōpō i hoʻopiha ʻia me ka waiū whipped a uhi ʻia me ka hau.
ʻO ka lā keke ʻo ʻIlia (ka lā Buns a i ʻole Bolludagur) hoʻolauleʻa ʻia i kēlā me kēia makahiki a puni ka ʻāina i ka Pōʻakahi, ʻelua mau lā ma mua.
Ua lanakila koke ke kuʻuna i ka puʻuwai o nā keiki. Ua lilo ia i mea maʻamau, mākaukau ʻia me ka ʻōpae pena ʻia o ka buffoon, e hoʻāla i nā mākua i ke kakahiaka nui me ka hoʻōho ʻana i ka inoa o nā pōpō: "Bollur, bollur!" Ehia mau manawa e ʻuwā ai ʻoe - e loaʻa nā pōpō he nui loa iā ʻoe. I ka wā mua, akā naʻe, manaʻo ʻia e whip iā ia iho. Maliʻa paha ua hoʻi kēia maʻamau i kahi lāhui pagan o ke ala ʻana i nā ikaika o ke kūlohelohe: malia paha ua pili i nā kuko o Karisto, akā i kēia manawa ua lilo ia i mea leʻaleʻa a puni ka ʻāina.
Eia kekahi, ʻo nā keiki i kēia lā e hele i nā alanui, hīmeni a noi no nā pōpō i nā hale kahu palaoa. I ka pane ʻana i nā mea kuke kuke ʻole hiki ʻole ke kani, ua kani lākou: "Hoʻohanohano ʻia nā keiki Palani ma aneʻi!" He hana maʻamau nō hoʻi ia e "kīkē i ka pōpoki mai ka barela", akā naʻe, i nā kūlanakauhale āpau koe ʻo Akureyri, neʻe ka hana maʻamau i Ash Day.
I kēia manawa ʻike ʻia nā pōpō bollur i nā hale kahu palaoa i kekahi mau lā ma mua o ka lā hoʻomaha - i ka leʻaleʻa o nā keiki a me nā mea aloha i nā pā momona.
