Днесь благовѣрніи людіе свѣтло празднуемъ, / осѣняеми Твоимъ Богомати пришествіем, / и къ Твоему взирающе пречистому образу, умильно глаголемъ: / покрый насъ честнымъ твоимъ покровомъ, / и избави насъ отъ всякaго зла, / молящи Сына Твоего Христа Бога нашего, // спасти души наша. |
Today we Orthodox people joyfully celebrate /
thy glorious coming among us, O Mother of God, / and gazing upon thy most pure image, we say with compunction: / Shelter us with thy most precious protection, / and deliver us from all evil, / and pray to thy Son, Christ our God, / that he save our souls. |

Дѣва днесь предстоитъ въ Церкви, /
и съ лики святыхъ невидимо за ны молится Богу: / ангели со архіереи покланяются, / апостоли же со пророки ликовствуютъ: // насъ бо ради молитъ Богородица Превѣчнаго Бога. |
Today the Virgin doth stand before us in church, /
and with the choirs of saints invisibly prayeth for us to God. / Angels worship with hierarchs, / apostles rejoice with prophets, // for the Theotokos prayeth for us to the Eternal God. |
