One song went:
Sint Maarten Sint Maarten
De koeien hebben staarten
De meisjes hebben rokjes aan
Daar komt Sint Martinus aan
Translation:
Saint Martin, Saint Martin
The cows have tails
The girls have skirts
Here comes Saint Martinus
They sung it over and over that I was able to memorize the lyrics. But after they left, I started wondering what have cows with tails got to do with Saint Martin? The noble, knight St. Martin who helped a pauper! LOL

That is cute, i heard about the day before also, and now that we move to different house than last year i thought may be they celebrate it here, but noone came at our door, so may be either they didnt celebrate in my area or they thought not to bother strangers :-D hehe
hahahaha... I don't think they skipped your house. This is the first time in 8 years that children came knocking at our door, you know? Normally, they don't come either. But last summer, I was playing with them. So they kinda know me now. hahahahaha
An paghuna ko, na-Bisaya man gid ka na kan Saint Martin. Mwahahaa!
@buday: Ano fi.... HAHAHAHAHA
