Original text and translations

English text

Ice has gone from all the rivers,
Cypress trees begin to bloom;
Now the wood dove coos his spring song,
Gone the days of dark and gloom
Peasants in the field are planting,
Singing as they drop the seed:
Alleluia! Christ is risen,
Christ the Lord is ris'n indeed!

On the steppes the flow'rs are gleaming,
Winter's wheat is cool and green,
March-buds glisten in the valleys,
Low-lands glow with moss-y sheen.
Peas-ants on their farms are singing
As the oxen munch their feed.
Alleluia! Christ is risen,
Christ the Lord is ris'n indeed!
