Хор Свято-Троицкой Сергиевой лавры - Волною морскою - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

1. The wave of the sea / hid the persecutor of old / the tormentor / under the earth the shelter of the saved youths; / but we, like maidens, / drink to the Lord, gloriously we will be glorified.

3. You who hanged on the waters / the whole earth uncontrollably, / seeing the creature hanging on its forehead, / shuddered with horror in many, / is not holy, unless they cry out to You, O Lord.

4. On the cross Your Divine exhaustion / seeing Habakkuk was horrified, crying out: / You have thwarted the mighty power, O Good One, / joining with those in hell, as Omnipotent.

5. Your Epiphany, O Christ, / came to us mercifully, / Isaiah saw the light of the evening, / having risen from the night, you cried: / the dead will rise again, and those who are in the tombs will rise, / and all earthly creatures will rejoice.

6. I came, but was not kept / in the breasts of Jonah: / For bearing your image, / Who suffered, and was given burial, / As from the palace from the beast; / having invited the custodians, / who guard vain and false things, / left this mercy to nature.

Kontakion, ch. 6:

Having enclosed the abyss, he is seen to be dead, and wrapped in myrrh and shroud, he is laid in the tomb as if he were an Immortal mortal: the women came to anoint Him with myrrh, weeping bitterly and crying: this is the most blessed Saturday, in which Christ, having fallen asleep, will rise again for three days.

7. An indescribable miracle, / in the cave delivering the venerable youths from the flames, / lying dead and breathless in the tomb, / singing for the salvation of us: / God the Deliverer, / blessed art thou.

8. Be terrified, be afraid, O heaven, / and let the foundations of the earth move: / for the dead are counted among the living ones on high, / and the little ones are accepted strangely into the grave. / Bless the youths, sing to the priests, / extol the people forever.

9. Do not cry for Me, Mother, / seeing me in the grave; / Whom in your womb you conceived a Son without seed: / I will arise and be glorified, / and I will exalt you with glory unceasingly as God, / magnifying You with faith and love.
