Easter Bunny

Looking kind of funny

With your basket of eggs

Children singing

“What’s the bunny bringing

For me on Easter Day?”

Mom is cooking

While we’re out there looking

For the eggs hidden away

After church, we

Gathered around with family

On this Easter Day

* Two thousand years ago

Jesus died for our sins

Remember his resurrection

And the joy it brings *

Flowers blooming

Springtime’s looming

Everything is coming alive

Easter colours

Yellow, blue and others

Tell us spring has arrived

Children are playing

And everybody’s saying

“So good to see you today!”

We’re all together

The merrier the better

On this Easter holiday

“Good to see you today!”

Repeat *

Flowers are blooming

And springtime’s looming

Oh what a wonderful day

We’re all together

The more of us the better

On this Easter holiday

A lovely Easter holiday

I like my Easter holiday

复活节象征——兔子和彩蛋

兔子是复活节的象征，因为它的繁殖力很强，被视为新生命的创造者。大人们绘声绘色地告诉孩子们彩蛋是兔子下的，会孵化成小兔子。许多家庭还会专门给孩子准备一个装彩蛋的小篮子。复活节这天大人们会在草坪里藏些彩蛋，让孩子们玩找彩蛋的游戏。复活节兔子和彩蛋也成为节日期间最抢手的商品。商场出售各式各样的兔子和彩蛋形状的商品，食品店和糖果店摆满用巧克力制成的兔子和彩蛋。兔子神态可爱，彩蛋花样繁多，小的和鸡蛋差不多，大的有甜瓜那么大，吃起来味道香甜。
