Swahili Orthodox Chants & Teachings

Ili kwa nia moja tuungame: Baba, Mwana na Roho Mtakatifu; Utatu wa asili moja, na asiyetengana.

Swahili Troparion of the Meeting of the Lord in the Temple (Feb 2)



SWAHILI:
Salamu, Wewe uliyejaa neema, Ee Mzazi-Mungu bikira; /maana toka Kwako, limechomoza jua la haki, Kristo Mungu wetu; /na kuwaangazia walio gizani. /Salamu pia, Ee ‘Yieronda’ mwenye haki, /unapompokea mikononi mwako, Mkombozi wa nafsi zetu, /Anayetujalia sisi pia Ufufuo.

ENGLISH:
Hail, Virgin Theotokos, full of grace! / From you shone the Sun of Righteousness, Christ our God, / enlightening those who were in darkness! / Rejoice, O righteous Elder; / you received in your arms the Redeemer of our souls, / Who grants us the Resurrection.

ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΆ;
Χαῖρε Κεχαριτωμένη Θεοτόκε Παρθένε, ἐκ σοῦ γὰρ ἀνέτειλεν ὁ Ἥλιος τῆς δικαιοσύνης, Χριστὸς ὁ Θεὸς ἠμῶν, φωτίζων τοὺς ἐν σκότει. Εὐφραίνου καὶ σὺ Πρεσβῦτα δίκαιε, δεξάμενος ἐν ἀγκάλαις τὸν ἐλευθερωτὴν τῶν ψυχῶν ἠμῶν, χαριζόμενον ἠμὶν καὶ τὴν Ἀνάστασιν.
