 THE TRADITIONAL FESTIVAL OF KITES "BASANT" PASSES IN PAKISTAN.
          Islamabad, on February, 20th. A/correspondent of ITAR-TASS Vladimir Suprun/.
       Practically all population of Pakistan from it is small to it is great left
Today since morning on streets of cities and villages to take part
In the brightest national festival on the occasion of approach of spring
- "Basante". To mark this original, not connected with
Religious dates, a holiday has become fashionable in the Muslim
To the country rather recently, but from a year in a year it wins
The increasing popularity, especially in the youth environment.
          The cultural capital of Pakistan - 5 became the centre of celebrations
The million city of Lahore. The sun, as has not had time to ascend yet in
The sky over it have soared up ten thousand kites, which
Are "highlight of the program" of festival and the most important
Component of festivals. Lahore in full sense
Words has turned yellow - soaring snakes, people, streets have dressed up in this
The colour symbolising in consciousness pakistantsev the spring
Nature awakening by a life.
          Tone set, as usually, children. Having forgotten about all on light,
Under enthusiastic exclamations of crowd they with rare quickness and
Skill start made of a special paper
Constructions of the most freakish form, catching vozdushnie streams and
Unwinding, unwinding coils with a thread. All are captured by passion
And an emulative spirit having one purpose - demonstration
Flight of a dragon at the greatest possible height. The most desperate
Heads thus get on roofs of apartment houses, hotels and
Even high-rise office buildings hope to win
Contenders.
          The colourful show is supplemented with performances of the numerous
Collectives of musicians, dancers, folklore ensembles, under
Which performances the city authorities have taken away the majority
The central areas of Lahore.
          Perhaps, the unique moment saddening pleasure of people
This day, there are accidents, without which not
Any manages "Basant". Last year, for example, in
Festival time across all Pakistan have been registered
Some tens death as a result of falling from height,
Arrivals of motor transport or defeat of fans air
Dragons an electrocurrent.
