English text
Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered!
O Christ is risen from the dead,
trampling down death by death,
and granting life to those in the tombs.
As smoke is driven away, so drive them away.
O Christ is risen from the dead,
trampling down death by death,
and granting life to those in the tombs.
Let the wicked perish at the presence of God,
Let the righteous be glad!
O Christ is risen from the dead,
trampling down death by death,
and granting life to those in the tombs.
This is the day which the Lord hath made,
we will be glad in it.
O Christ is risen from the dead,
trampling down death by death,
and granting life to those in the tombs.
