The original, OG Christmas lights of the province. They're nature's fairies, the little sparks that make a probinsya night magical. It's what you wish your love life was like—sporadically bright and magical, instead of just... dark. Also, a classic song by The Cueshé.
A common and well-known word, especially in literature and songs.
