The dead return
/ðə/ /dɛd/ /rɪˈtɜːn/
A Festival for the Dead is held once a year in Japan. This
/ə/ /ˈfɛstəvəl/ /fɔː/ /ðə/ /dɛd/ /ɪz/ /hɛld/ /wʌns/ /ə/ /jɪər/ /ɪn/ /ʤəˈpæn./ /ðɪs/
festival is a cheerful occasion, for on this day, the dead are
/ˈfɛstəvəl/ /ɪz/ /ə/ /ˈʧɪəfʊl/ /əˈkeɪʒən,/ /fɔːr/ /ɒn/ /ðɪs/ /deɪ,/ /ðə/ /dɛd/ /ɑː/
said to return to their homes/ and they are welcomed by the
/sɛd/ /tuː/ /rɪˈtɜːn/ /tuː/ /ðeə/ /həʊmz/ /ænd/ /ðeɪ/ /ɑː/ /ˈwɛlkəmd/ /baɪ/ /ðiː/
living. As they are expected to be hungry after their long
/ˈlɪvɪŋ./ /æz/ /ðeɪ/ /ɑːr/ /ɪksˈpɛktɪd/ /tuː/ /biː/ /ˈhʌŋgri/ /ˈɑːftə/ /ðeə/ /lɒŋ/
journey, food is laid out for them. Specially-made lanterns
ˈʤɜːni,/ /fuːd/ /ɪz/ /leɪd/ /aʊt/ /fɔː/ /ðɛm./ /ˈspɛʃəli-meɪd/ /ˈlæntənz/ /
are hung outside each house/ to help the dead to find their
/ɑː/ /hʌŋ/ /ˌaʊtˈsaɪd/ /iːʧ/ /haʊs/ /tuː/ /hɛlp/ /ðə/ /dɛd/ /tuː/ /faɪnd/ /ðeə/ /
way. All night long, people dance and sing. In the early
/weɪ./ /ɔːl/ /naɪt/ /lɒŋ,/ /ˈpiːpl/ /dɑːns/ /ænd/ /sɪŋ./ /ɪn/ /ði/ /ˈɜːli/
morning, the food that had been laid out for the dead is
/ˈmɔːnɪŋ,/ /ðə/ /fuːd/ /ðæt/ /hæd/ /biːn/ /leɪd/ /aʊt/ /fɔː/ /ðə/ /dɛd/ /ɪz/ /
thrown into a river/ or into the sea/ as it is considered unlucky
/θrəʊn/ /ˈɪntuː/ /ə/ /ˈrɪvər/ /ɔːr/ /ˈɪntuː/ /ðə/ /siː/ /æz/ /ɪt/ /ɪz/ /kənˈsɪdəd/ /ʌnˈlʌki/
for anyone living to eat it. In towns that are near the sea, the
/fɔːr/ /ˈɛnɪwʌn/ /ˈlɪvɪŋ/ /tuː/ /iːt/ /ɪt./ /ɪn/ /taʊnz/ /ðæt/ /ɑː/ /nɪə/ /ðə/ /siː,/ /ðiː/
tiny lanterns which had been hung in the streets the night
/ˈtaɪni/ /ˈlæntənz/ /wɪʧ/ /hæd/ /biːn/ /hʌŋ/ /ɪn/ /ðə/ /striːts/ /ðə/ /naɪt/
before, are placedinto the water when the festival is over.
/bɪˈfɔː,/ /ɑː/ /pleɪst/ /ˈɪntuː/ /ðə/ /ˈwɔːtə/ /wɛn/ /ðə/ /ˈfɛstəvəl/ /ɪz/ /ˈəʊvə./
Thousands of lanterns slowly drift out to sea/ guiding the dead
/ˈθaʊzəndz/ /ɒv/ /ˈlæntənz/ /ˈsləʊli/ /drɪft/ /aʊt/ /tuː/ /siː/ /ˈgaɪdɪŋ/ /ðə/ /dɛd/
on their return journey to the other world. This is a moving
/ɒn/ /ðeə/ /rɪˈtɜːn/ /ˈʤɜːni/ /tuː/ /ði/ /ˈʌðə/ /wɜːld./ /ðɪs/ /ɪz/ /ə/ /ˈmuːvɪŋ/
spectacle, for crowds of people stand on the shore/ watching
/ˈspɛktəkl,/ /fɔː/ /kraʊdz/ /ɒv/ /ˈpiːpl/ /stænd/ /ɒn/ /ðə/ /ʃɔː/ /ˈwɒʧɪŋ/
the lanterns drifting away/ until they can be seen no more.
