When we heard that due to the current COVID-19 situation no feasts will be allowed, we felt sad. This is because we all loved the joyous and festive time that our beloved feast brings along. Sadly, this year we will not be able to experience it in person so it has been decided to publish some archived footage of the feast to help keep our spirits up during these difficult times.
These videos are highlights from our archives of past feasts, in which we will be publishing for Nadur Feast Fans to enjoy. This video forms part of the #ImnarjaArchives project.
■ Imnarja Feast
This feast is one of the oldest feasts celebrated in Malta and Gozo. The Feast commemorates two important Saints in Maltese religious lore, St. Peter and St. Paul. The word luminarja is derived from the Latin word "Luminare" - to light up. This was the way people manifested their joy in recognition of a particular feast, such lighting being offered by burning bonfires and candles. The Feast in Nadur includes an agricultural and crafts show, firework displays, and concerts by the local Mnarja brass band.
■ Lyrics
Int hienja Ruma li sebbaħt ħitanek
Bid-demm għażiż tal-prinċpijiet il-kbar
Għax kienu l-merti tagħhom mhux ġrajjietek
Li minnek sawru ġawhra fuq din l-art
Hekk immorru llissnu fit-talb tagħna
F’dan il-jum ta’ Solennità
San Pietru u San Pawl, San Pietru u San Pawl
Mis-sema ħarsuna, lejn Kristu ressquna
Lilna għeżież uliedkom Nadurin
San Pietru u San Pawl, San Pietru u San Pawl
Mis-sema ħarsuna, lejn Kristu ressquna
F’dellkom aħna ngħammru n-Nadurin
Int hienja Ruma wisq glorjuża artek
Fi ħdanek temm tal-Martri l-aħħar vjaġġ
U dwiet l-aħbar ta' Kristu fost uliedek
Xandart il-Knisja msawra fuq il-blat
Hekk immorru nfakkru lill-ġnus kollha
F’dan il-jum ta’ Solennità
San Pietru u San Pawl, San Pietru u San Pawl
Mis-sema ħarsuna, lejn Kristu ressquna
Lilna għeżież uliedkom Nadurin
San Pietru u San Pawl, San Pietru u San Pawl
Mis-sema ħarsuna, lejn Kristu ressquna
F’dellkom aħna ngħammru n-Nadurin
