10th Century Byzantine Chant - O Aggelos Eboa - Paschal hymn
Old Greek and English Lyrics:
- O Ángelos evóa ti Kecharitomeni, Agní Parthéne chaíre kai pálin eró chaíre, o sos Yiós anésti triímeros ek táfou. Fotízou, fotízou i néa lerousalím. i gar dóxa Kyríou epí se anéteile. Chóreve nyn kai angálou Sión, sy de Agní térpou Thetóke en ti Egérsei tou tókou sou
- The angel cried to the Lady Full of Grace:
Rejoice, O Pure Virgin!
Again I say: Rejoice!
Your Son is risen from His three days in the tomb!
With Himself He has raised all the dead!
Rejoice, all you people!
Shine! Shine! O New Jerusalem!
The Glory of the Lord has shone on you!
Exalt now and be glad, O Zion!
Be radiant, O Pure Theotokos, in the Resurrection of your Son!
