Izhe Heruvimy tayno obrazuyushe
I zhivotvoryayshe Troytse trsvyatuy pesn pripevayushe,
fskakoe nyne zhiteskoye otlozhim popechenie
jako da Tsarya fseh podimem
angelskimi nevidimo dorinosima chinmi.
Alliluia
English translation
We, who mystically represent the Cherubim,
And chant the thrice-holy hymn to the Life-giving Trinity,
Let us set aside the cares of life
That we may receive the King of all,
Who comes invisibly escorted by the Divine Hosts.
Alleluia.
Dutch translation
Laat ons, die hier op mystieke de cherubs verzinnebeelden,
en het driemaal heilig zingen tot de levenschenkende Drie-eenheid,
nu alle aardse zorgen opzij leggen
zodat wij de Koning van het al kunnen verwelkomen,
die binnentreedt, op onzichtbare wijze begeleid door de hemelse scharen.
Alleluia.
