That is why we have those carolers, carols, kutyu and uzvar and much more. In ancient times, it was believed that the New Sun was born. And this is evidenced by such a carol, which has preserved pre-Christian symbols: "On the Light Tree, two little birds advise us how to establish this world, they dive to the bottom, pull out a stone from there and thus establish the World." And that is why many scholars support this point of view, that they sang hymns that glorify the birth of the New Sun, the birth of the New Year.

Как рудимент древних магических ритуалов, колядки и щедривки призывали богов (языческое "Ой Даждьбоже!", трансформированное в "Ой дай Боже!") дать хозяину (или хозяйке, парню, девушке) доброе здоровье и хозяйственные достатки (в древние времена было аверсом и реверсом одной медали), связанных с хорошим урожаем, благоприятными условиями возделывания земли, доходов в доме (особенно скота). Средством художественных сравнений, эпитетов, метафор превозносится, восхваляется хозяин, члены его семьи, которым желают доброй судьбы, здоровья, любви, добрых браков и т.д.

This led to the appearance of these groups of carolers who dressed up and performed symbolic actions - as if the arrival of these deceased ancestors into our world. The groups of carolers who came to the Lord symbolized those representatives of the afterlife - the souls of the dead who are returning to Earth at this time. And that's why they were expected in every lord, they believed that where the foot of the caroler steps, there the foot of the dead will not step.
