103. Svete tichi svjatyje bessmertnago Otca nebesnavo

RUSSIAN -
Svete tichi svjatyje slavy bessmertnago Otca nebesnavo,
svjatago bla žennago Iisuse Christe;
prišedše na zapad solnca,
videvše svet večernij,
pojem Otca,
Syna i svjatago Ducha Boga.
Dostoin jesi vo xsja vremena pet
byti glasy prepodobnymi,
Syne Božij, žyvotdajaj:
temže mir tja slavit.

---

ENGLISH -
Jesus Christ, Joyous Light! pure ray from the blazing splendor of the Father,
who dwells immortal, hallowed,
blest, in heaven above!
Once more we come at sunset hour;
while cheerful lamps give gladness
amid the gloom,
one God we praise, Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
To you, Everlasting Son of the Father,
sacred anthems ever should we sing:
you are worthy of all worship,
you have brought eternal life.
