What Day Was I Born?
Sunday
“The child that is born on the Sabbath day is bonny and blithe, good and gay.”
Sunday is the Sun's day in English and 日 (sun) in Korean and Japanese, but in Spanish and French it became the Lord's day — domingo, dimanche. The rhyme saves its longest, happiest lines for Sunday's child, “bonny and blithe, good and gay”, and Thailand gives the day red.

The rhyme, colors, names and signs are traditions, not predictions. The day itself is plain arithmetic.
