One ha' penny

In many historically Christian countries, the buns are traditionally eaten on Good Friday with the cross standing as a symbol of the crucifixion. Their ingredients mean that people who are following lent are able to eat them as they traditionally contain no eggs or other dairy products.

Street Sellers Song

Hot cross buns,
Hot cross buns,
one ha' penny,
two a penny,
hot cross buns.
If you have no daughters,
give them to your sons,
one ha' penny,
two a penny,
Hot Cross Buns
