Christos Anesti.

This is a Paschal poem by Dionysios Solomos. This poet also wrote ‘Hymn to Liberty’ (1823), the first two stanzas are sung as the Greek National Anthem - the beautiful, beautiful words of which uplift our souls.

Η HμÎ*ρα της Λαμπρής

Καθαρότατον ήλιο επρομηνούσε
της αυγής το δροσάτο ύστερο αστÎ*ρι,
σύγνεφο, καταχνιά, δεν απερνούσε
Ï„' ουρανού σε κανÎ*να από τα μÎ*ρη,
και από εκεί κινημÎ*νο αργοφυσούσε
τόσο γλυκό στο πρόσωπο Ï„' αÎ*ρι,
που λες και λÎ*ει μες της καρδιάς τα φύλλα
«γλυκειά η ζωή κι ο θάνατος μαυρίλα».

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cmrLM-ujvk

Χριστός ανÎ*στη! ΝÎ*οι, γÎ*ροι και κόραις
όλοι, μικροί, μεγάλοι ετοιμασθήτε,
μÎ*σα στις εκκλησιÎ*Ï‚ τες δαφνοφόραις
με το φως της χαράς συμμαζωχθήτε,
ανοίξατε αγκαλιÎ*Ï‚ ειρηνοφόραις
ομπροστά στους Αγίους, και φιληθείτε,
φιληθείτε γλυκά χείλη με χείλη,
Ï€Î*στε Χριστός ανÎ*στη, εχθροί και φίλοι.

Δάφναις εις κάθε πλάκα Î*χουν οι τάφοι,
και βρÎ*φη ωραία στην αγκαλιά οι μαννάδες,
γλυκόφωνα, κοιτώντας ταις ζωγραφι-
σμÎ*ναις εικόνες, ψάλλουνε οι ψαλτάδες,
λάμπει το ασήμι, λάμπει το χρυσάφι
από το φως που χύνουνε οι λαμπάδες,
κάθε πρόσωπο λάμπει απ' Ï„' αγιοκÎ*ρι,
οπού κρατούνε οι Χριστιανοί στο χÎ*ρι.

The Day of Easter

The last cool star of dawn was
foretelling the brightest sunshine;
no cloud, no drift of mist was travelling
across any part of the sky.
Coming from there, the breeze
blew so sweetly across the face,
so gently, that it seemed
to whisper to the depths of the heart:
‘Life is sweet and death is darkness.’

‘Christ is Risen!’ Young and old, maidens,
everyone, little and great, prepare!
Inside the laurel-covered churches,
gather in the light of joy!
Open your arms and with them offer peace,
that the icons of the saints may see.
Embrace and kiss each other sweetly, lip on lip,
let friend and foe proclaim, ‘Christ is Risen!’

Laurels are placed on every tomb,
beautiful babes are held in mothers’ arms,
the choristers sing sweetly
as they come before the icons.
Bright is the silver, bright is the gold,
under the light of the Easter candles.
Each face alights before the holy candles,
that Christians bear in hand."


I believe that the translation I downloaded could be better. The Greek words sing.
