Instead of palm fronds, sprigs of boxwood, myrtle, willow, yew or olive leaves are blessed to celebrate Palm Sunday, the start of the Holy Week for Christians.

In het kleurboek van de wereld zijn de kleuren ingevuld.
zwarte aarde, rode rozen,
geel geworden golvend graan.
Blauwe druiven, paarse heide,
groene wei en witte zwaan.

In het
kleurboek van de wereld zijn de kleuren ingevuld.
Rood, je schaamt je, groen is afgunst,
blauw dat word je van de kou.
Paars van woede, wit van kwaadheid,
geel van nijd en zwart in rouw.

Als het
kleurboek van jezelf is, kies je toch jouw kleuren uit.
Groen natuurlijk, geel gelukkig,
blauw, je voelt je sterk als staal.
Rood voor liefde, roze vriendschap,
kleurling zijn we allemaal.

Colourful
In the coloring
book of the world, colors are filled in
black earth, red roses,
turned yellow wavy grain.
Blue grapes, purple heather,
green meadow and white swan.
Refrain: Enter the days of your life with your own colors.
Each page is different, every day is a new beginning (2x).
The coloring of the world are the colors filled:
Red, for shame, green for envy,
blue that you become the cold.
Purple with rage, white with anger,
yellow from envy and black in mourning.
refrain
In your own coloring book, you still choose your colors.
Green for being natural , yellow for happiness
blue for feeling strong as steel.
Red for love, pink for friendship
we are all colorful.
