Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day, also called Saint Valentine's Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine, is celebrated annually on February 14. It originated as a Christian feast day honoring one or two early Christian martyrs named Saint Valentine and, through later folk traditions, has become a significant cultural, religious, and commercial celebration of romance and love in many regions of the world.

There are a number of martyrdom stories associated with various Valentines connected to February 14, including an account of the imprisonment of Saint Valentine of Rome for ministering to Christians persecuted under the Roman Empire in the third century. According to an early tradition, Saint Valentine restored sight to the blind daughter of his jailer. Numerous later additions to the legend have better related it to the theme of love: an 18th-century embellishment to the legend claims he wrote the jailer's daughter a letter signed "Your Valentine" as a farewell before his execution; another addition posits that Saint Valentine performed weddings for Christian soldiers who were forbidden to marry.

There is a tradition that the Feast of Saint Valentine was established by Pope Gelasius I in AD 496 to be celebrated on February 14 in honour of Saint Valentine of Rome, who died on that date in AD 269. The feast is found in the Gelasian Sacramentary (which was compiled after Gelasius), meaning that is has been observed since at least the eighth century. The day became associated with romantic love in the 14th and 15th centuries when notions of courtly love flourished, apparently by association with the "lovebirds" of early spring. In 18th-century England, it grew into an occasion in which couples expressed their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as "valentines"). Valentine's Day symbols that are used today include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have given way to mass-produced greeting cards. In Italy, Saint Valentine's Keys are given to lovers "as a romantic symbol and an invitation to unlock the giver's heart", as well as to children to ward off epilepsy (called Saint Valentine's Malady).

Saint Valentine's Day is not a public holiday in any country, although it is an official feast day in the Anglican Communion and the Lutheran Church. Many parts of the Eastern Orthodox Church also celebrate Saint Valentine's Day on July 6 in honor of Roman presbyter Saint Valentine, and on July 30 in honor of Hieromartyr Valentine, the Bishop of Interamna (modern Terni).

రుచి చూచి ఎరిగితిని

పల్లవి: రుచి చూచి ఎరిగితిని యెహోవా ఉత్తముడనియు
రక్షకు నాశ్రయించి నే ధన్యుడనైతిని || రుచి చూచి||

1. గొప్ప దేవుడవు నీవే స్తుతులకు పాత్రుడ నీవే
తప్పక ఆరాధింతు దయాళుడవు నీవే || రుచి చూచి||

2. మహోన్నతుడవగు దేవా ప్రభావము గలవాడా
మనసారా పొగడదను నీ ఆశ్చర్యకార్యములన్ || రుచి చూచి||

3. మంచి తనము గల దేవా అతి శ్రేష్టుడవు అందరిలో
ముద మార పాడెద నిన్నుఅతి సుందరడవనియు || రుచి చూచి||

4. ప్రార్దింతును ఎడతెగక ప్రభు సన్నిధిలో చేరి
సంపూర్ణముగా పొం దెదను అడుగువాటన్నిటికి || రుచి చూచి||

I just wanna speak the name of Jesus
Over every heart and every mind

'Cause I know there is peace within Your presence

పల్లవి: నా దేవా - యేసయ్య - నీవే నా బలం

నడిపించే ఆధారం - కాపాడే ఆశ్రయం

నీవేగా నా వరం - నీ నామం ఉన్నతం

నీ ప్రేమే శాశ్వతం

శరణం నీవే అనుదినం - ప్రభువా నీకే వందనం

1. పలికే దైవం కరుణించినావుగ

ఇలలో నన్ను గెలిపించినావుగ

యేసూ నీవే - సంతోషమై

నిలిచే నాలో - సంగీతమై

దేవా నీకే - ఆరాధన

హృదిలో నీకే - ఆలాపన

2. చెరలో నన్ను విడిపించినావుగ

నిరతం నాలో వశియించినావుగ

యేసూ నీవే - నా రక్షణై

వెలిగే నాలో - నా దీపమై

దేవా నీవే - నా మార్గమై

దరికే చేర్చు - నా స్నేహమై

राहो में कांटे अगर हो
