selected from "Russian folk proverbs and sayings" - Collection of folk proverbs and sayings collected by Vladimir Ivanovich Dal

Spring is a time of awakening of nature, a time of renewal and expectations. A good spring means a good harvest, and therefore a prosperous life.

Boz karau

As in the cultures and traditions of all peoples, Tatar villages were located on the banks of rivers. Therefore, the first "spring celebration" (bairm) is associated with the drift of ice. This holiday is called boz karau, boz bagu - "watching the ice", boz ozatma - seeing off the ice, zin kitu - ice drift. All the villagers came out to watch the ice drift on the river bank. Young people dressed up, played the accordion. Straw was laid out and lit on floating ice floes.

Another tradition, when in early spring children went home in their village to collect cereals, butter, eggs. With the help of older cooks from the food they collected on the street, the children cooked porridge in a large cauldron and ate it.

Kyzyl Yomorka

After a while, the day of collecting colored eggs came. The villagers were warned about such a day in advance and the hostesses painted eggs in the evening - most often in a decoction of onion peels. The eggs turned out to be multi-colored - from golden yellow to dark brown, and in the broth of birch leaves - various shades of green. In addition, in each house special dough balls were baked - small buns, pretzels, and they also bought sweets.

Children were especially looking forward to this day. Mothers sewed bags for them from towels to collect eggs. Some guys went to bed dressed and booted so as not to waste time getting ready in the morning, they put a log under the pillow so as not to oversleep. Early and early in the morning, boys and girls began to walk around the houses. The one who came in first brought in the chips and scattered them on the floor - so that "the yard was not empty", that is, so that there were a lot of living creatures on it.

The old wishes of children to the owners are expressed, as in the days of great-grandmothers and great-grandfathers. For example, this: "Kyt-kytyk, kyt-kytyk, grandfather and grandmother at home? Will they give you an egg? Let there be many chickens, let their roosters trample on them. If you do not give an egg, there is a lake in front of your house, you will drown there!" Collecting eggs lasted two to three hours, it was very fun. And then the children gathered in one place on the street and played different games with the collected eggs.
