(0:00)1. Romanos the Melodist, Kontakion: Today the Virgin

lyrics: english;

Composition by St. Romanus the Melodist

On this day the Virgin beareth the Transcedent in Essence, to the Unapproachable the earth doth offer a small cave. Angel join in choiring with shepherds in giving glory, with a star the Magi travel upon their journey, for our sakes is born a young Child, He that existed before the ages as God.

lyrics:Greek;

(Κοντάκιο Χριστουγέννων)

Ἦχος γ´. Αὐτόμελον. Ποίημα Ῥωμανοῦ τοῦ Μελῳδοῦ.

Ἡ Παρθένος σήμερον, τὸν ὑπερούσιον τίκτει,

καὶ ἡ γῆ τὸ Σπήλαιον, τῷ ἀπροσίτω προσάγει.

Ἄγγελοι μετὰ Ποιμένων δοξολογοῦσι.

Μάγοι δὲ μετὰ ἀστέρος ὁδοιποροῦσι.

Δι᾿ ἡμᾶς γὰρ ἐγεννήθη, Παιδίον νέον,

ὁ πρὸ αἰώνων Θεός!!!

(1:26)2. Petros Bereketis, 3 Heirmoi: Odes 1,5,9

Three Heirmoi (model melodies), from the 1st, 5th, and 9th

First Mode

1st Ode: Christ becomes a little Child in the town of Bethlehem.

In his mercy he renews our nature. Come, let us all rejoice, with

all our heart let us sing to the Lord a melodious song, for he has

been glorified forever.

5th Ode: O You who sees everything. Glory of Kings: who would

fail to wonder on your love for mankind? For you have appeared

on earth as man without leaving the bosom of the Father. You

renew the entire creation and You gratify us with your peace, O

You, the only Lord of peace.

9th Ode: Rejoice, O Mary most pure, receptacle of God. Rejoice, O

immaculate support of those who have fallen, for in you has the

Lord appeared. O Wonder! He renews those who were slaves of

corruption and draws them back to the eternal light! O Virgin !

Words in Greek:(Track 2)

Χριστός έν πόλει Βηθλεέμ βρεφουργείται, την ημών ώς εύσπλαχνος καινουργών φύσιν. Προθύμως δεύτε γηγενείς τη καρδία άσμα μελωδόν άσωμεν τω Δεσπότη εις αιώνας ενδόξως γαρ δεδόξασται. 

Ω Παντεπόπτα, των ανάρχων το κλέος. Τίς ουν τον Φιλάνθρωπον γηγενών ου θαυμάσει? Ενί γαρ ώφθη μη λιπών τη πατρώα σήμερον πάσαν εγκαινίζων την φύσιν και ειρήνην ως μόνος ειρηνάρχης βραβεύων.

Χαίροις Πάναγνε Θεόν τεκών Μαρία, χαίροις Άχραντε των πεπτοκότων βάσις. Εν Σοι γαρ ώφθη σήμερον ο Δεσπότης, ω θαύμα καινουργόν τους θαρρέντας και προς φως επανάγον το ανέσπερο Κόρη
