La leggenda dei giorni della merla ha le sue radici nei tempi romani quando nel calendario il mese di gennaio ancora conteneva solo 28 giorni.
Secondo la storia, una merla, con uno splendido candido piumaggio, veniva regolarmente strapazzata da gennaio, mese freddo e ombroso, che si divertiva ad aspettare che lei uscisse dal nido in cerca di cibo, per gettare sulla terra freddo e gelo. According to the story, a blackbird, with her splendid, snow white plumage was usually thrown about by January, a cold and overcast month, who amused himself by waiting for her to leave her nest in search of food, and then casting bitter cold and frost onto the Earth.
Stanca delle continue persecuzioni, la merla un anno decise di fare provviste sufficienti per un mese, e si rinchiuse nella sua tana, al riparo, per tutto il mese di gennaio, che allora aveva solo ventotto giorni. Tired of the ongoing harassment, one year the blackbird decided to gather enough provisions for a month and closed herself in her burrow, taking refuge for the entire month of January, which at the time had only 28 days.
The last day of the month, thinking to have outsmarted the wicked January, she left her hideaway and started singing to mock him. January took such great offense that he asked February which then still had 31 days for a loan of three days, and he went crazy with snow storms, wind, ice, and rain. The blackbird took refuge in a chimney and there she stayed sheltered for three days.
Il potente gennaio si godette la scena e poi disse con il suo vocione: You cannot mock Nature. From today forward, I January will have 31 days, and the last three will be the coldest of the year. To remind everyone of this story, the blackbirds will forever more bear black feathers. How about the weather where you are?
