Ode 1. The same Irmos.
Anastasis liturgical translations — translated by Ephrem Lash
he boundary of death you forced open, all-pure Virgin, by bearing Christ the eternal Life, who shone out today from the tomb, and enlightened the world.
Having seen your Son and God risen from the dead, rejoice with the Apostles, O holy and full of grace, and as cause of the joy of all, all-pure mother of God, you first received the greeting ‘Rejoice’.
Translated by Ephrem Lash. Edition lash.en.anastasis.
