From Easter Sunday till the holy feast of Pentecost, churches of the Eastern rite resound with this hymn:
Χριστὸς ἀνέστη ἐκ νεκρῶν,
θανάτῳ θάνατον πατήσας,
καὶ τοῖς ἐν τοῖς μνήμασι,
ζωὴν χαρισάμενος!
Transliteration:
Christós anésti ek nekrón,
thanáto thánaton patísas,
ké tís en tís mnímasi,
zoín charisámenos!
English translation:
Christ is risen from the dead,
Trampling down death by death,
And upon those in the tombs
Bestowing life!
