All-Night Vigil, Op. 37

Sergei Rachmaninoff

  1. Come, let us worship

Priidite, poklonimsia Tsarevi nashemu Bogu. Priidite, poklonimsia i pripadem
Hristu Tsarevi nashemu Bogu. Priidite, poklonimsia i pripadem samomu Hristu Tsarevi i Bogu nashemu. Priidite, poklonimsia i pripadem Yemu.

Come, let us worship God, our King.
Come, let us worship and fall down
before Christ, our King and our God.
Come, let us worship and fall down
and kneel before the Very Christ, our King and our God.

Come, let us worship and fall down before Him.

Gladsome light of the holy glory of the Immortal One – the Heavenly Father, holy and blessed –
O Jesus Christ!
Now that we have come to the setting of the sun,

and behold the light of evening,
we praise the Father, Son and Holy Spirit – God. Thou art worthy at every moment
to be praised in hymns by reverent voices.
O Son of God, Thou art the Giver of Life; therefore all the world glorifies Thee.

5. Lord, now lettest Thou Thy servant depart in peace

Nine otpushchayeshi raba Tvoyego Vladiko, po glagolu Tvoyemu s mirom,

Lord, now lettest Thou Thy servant
depart in peace, according to Thy word,
for mine eyes have seen Thy salvation,
which Thou hast prepared before the face of all people: a light to enlighten the Gentiles,
and the Glory of Thy people Israel.

Rejoice, O Virgin Mother of God,
Mary full of grace, the Lord is with Thee. Blessed art Thou among women,
and Blessed is the Fruit of Thy womb,
for Thou hast borne the Savior of our souls.

7. Hexapsalmos: Glory to God in the Highest

9. Evlogitaria of the Resurrection

Blagosloven yesi, Ghospodi, nauchi mia opravdaniyem Tvoim.

Angelskiy sobor udivisia,
zria Tebe v mertvih vmenivshasia, smertnuyu zhe, Spase, krepost razorivsha, i s Soboyu Adama vozdvigsha,
i ot ada fsia svobozhdsha.

Blagosloven yesi, Ghospodi, nauchi mia opravdaniyem Tvoim.

“Pochto mira s milostivnimi slezami,
o uchenitsi, rastvoriayete?”
Blistayaysia vo grobe Angel, mironositsam veshchashe:

“Vidite vi grob, i urazumeyte:

Spas bo voskrese ot groba.” Blagosloven yesi, Ghospodi, nauchi mia opravdaniyem Tvoim.

Zelo rano mironositsi techahu
ko grobu Tvoyemu ridayushchiya,
no predsta k nim Angel i reche:
“Ridaniya vremia presta, ne plachite, voskreseniye zhe apostolom rtsite.”

Blagosloven yesi, Ghospodi, nauchi mia opravdaniyem Tvoim.

Mironositsi zheni s miri prishedshiya
ko grobu Tvoyemu, Spase, ridahu,
Angel zhe k nim reche, glagolia:
“Chto s mertvimi zhivago pomishliayete? Yako Bog bo voskrese ot groba!”

Slava Ottsu, i Sinu, i Sviatomu Duhu.
Poklonimsia Ottsu, i Yego Sinovi, i Sviatomu Duhu, Sviatey Troitse vo yedinom sushchestve,
s Serafimi zovushche:
“Sviat, Syiat, Syiat, yesi Ghospodi!”
I nine, i prisno, i vo veki vekov, Amin.

Zhiznodavtsa rozhdshi,
greha, Devo, Adama, izbavila yesi,
Radost zhe Yeve v pechali mesto podala yesi: padshiya zhe ot zhizni, k sey napravi,
iz Tebe voplotiviysia Bog i chelovek.

Alliluiya, alliluiya, alliluiya, slava Tebe, Bozhe!

Blessed art Thou, O Lord, teach me Thy statutes.

The angelic host was filled with awe,
When it saw Thee among the dead.
By destroying the power of death, O Savior, Thou didst raise Adam,
and save all men from hell!

Blessed art Thou, O Lord, teach me Thy statutes.

“Why do you mingle myrrh with your tears of compassion, O ye women disciples?”
cried the radiant angel in the tomb to the myrrh-bearers.

“Behold the tomb and understand:

the Savior is risen from the dead!” Blessed art Thou, O Lord,
teach me Thy statutes.

V ery early in the morning
the myrrh-bearers ran with sorrow to Thy tomb, but an Angel came to them and said:
“The time for sorrow has come to an end!
Do not weep, but announce the resurrection to the apostles!”

Blessed art Thou, O Lord, teach me Thy statutes.

The myrrh-bearers were sorrowful
as they neared Thy tomb,
but the Angel said to them:
“Why do you number the living among the dead? Since He is God, He is risen from the tomb!”

Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. We worship the Father, and His Son, and the Holy Spirit: the Holy Trinity, one in essence!
We cry with the Seraphim:

“Holy, Holy, Holy art Thou, O Lord!”
Both now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Since Thou didst give birth to the Giver of Life, O Virgin, Thou didst deliver Adam from his sin!
Thou gavest joy to Eve instead of sadness!
The God-man who was born of Thee

Has restored to life those who had fallen from it! Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia! Glory to Thee, O God!

10. Having beheld the Resurrection

Voskreseniye Hristovo videvshe,
poklonimsia Sviatomu Ghospodu Iisusu, yedinomu bezgreshnomu.
Krestu Tvoyemu pokloniayemsia, Hriste,
i sviatoye voskreseniye Tvoye poyem i slavim:
Ti bo yesi Bog nash, razve Tebe inogo ne znayem, imia Tvoye imenuyem.
Priidite fsi vernii,
poklonimsia sviatomu Hristovu voskreseniyu:
se bo pride krestom
radost fsemu miru,
fsegda blagosloviaschche Ghospoda,
poyem voskreseniye Yego:
raspiatiye bo preterpev,
smertiyu smert razrushi.

Having beheld the resurrection of Christ, let us worship the holy Lord Jesus,
the only Sinless One.
We venerate Thy Cross, O Christ,

and we hymn and glorify Thy holy resurrection,
for Thou art our God, and we know no other than Thee; we call on Thy name.
Come, all you faithful,
let us venerate Christ’s holy resurrection.
For, behold, through the cross
joy has come into all the world.
Ever blessing the Lord,
let us praise His resurrection,
for by enduring the cross for us,
He has destroyed death by death.

11. My soul magnifies the Lord

Velichit dusha Moya Ghospoda,
i vozradovasia duh Moy o Boze Spase Moyem.

Pripev: Chestneyshuyu Heruvim
i slavneyshuyu bez sravneniya Serafim,

bez istleniya Boga Slova rozhdshuyu,

sushchuyu Bogoroditsu Tia velichayem.

Yako prizre na smireniye rabi Svoyeya. se bo otnine ublazhat Mia fsi rodi.

Yako sotvori Mne velichiye Silniy,
i sviato imia Yego,
i milost Yego v rodi rodov boyashchimsia Yego.

Nizlozhi silniya so prestol,
i voznese smirenniya, alchushchiya ispolni blag,
i bogatiashchiyasia otpusti tschi.

Vospriyat Izrailia, otroka Svoyego, pomianuti milosti,
yakozhe glagola ko ottsem nashim, Avraamu i semini yego dazhe do veka.

My soul magnifies the Lord,
and my spirit rejoices in God my savior.

Refrain: More honorable than the Cherubim
and more glorious beyond compare than the Seraphim,
without defilement Thou gavest birth to God the Word,
true Mother of God, we magnify Thee.

For He has regarded the low estate of His handmaiden. For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed.

For He who is mighty has done great things for me,
and holy is His name,
and His mercy is on those who fear Him from generation to generation.

He has put down the mighty from their thrones, and has exalted those of low degree;
He has filled the hungry with
good things, and the rich He has sent empty away.

He has helped His servant Israel,
in remembrance of His mercy,
as He spoke to our fathers,
to Abraham and to his posterity forever.

Dnes spaseniye miru bist,

i Nachalniku zhizni nasheya; razrushiv bo smertiyu smert, pobedu dade nam i veliyu milost.

Today salvation has come to the world,
let us sing to Him who rose from the dead, the Author of our life.
Having destroyed death by death,
He has given us the victory and great mercy.

14. Thou didst rise from the tomb

Voskres iz groba i uzi rasterzal yesi ada,
razrushil yesi osuzhdeniye smerti, Ghospodi, fsia ot setey vraga izbaviviy,
yaviviy zhe Sebe apostolom Tvoim,
poslal yesi ya na propoved,
i temi mir Tvoy podal yesi fselenney,
yedine Mnogomilostive.

Thou didst rise from the tomb and burst the bonds of Hell! Thou didst destroy the condemnation of death, O Lord, releasing all mankind from the snares of the enemy!
Thou didst show Thyself to Thine apostles,

and didst send them forth to proclaim Thee;
and through them Thou hast granted Thy peace to the world, O Thou who art plenteous in mercy!

15. To Thee, the victorious Leader

Vzbrannoy voyevode pobeditelnaya,
yako izbavlshesia ot zlih, blagodarstvennaya vospisuyem Ti rabi Tvoi, Bogoroditse:

no yako imushchaya derzhavu nepobedimuyu, ot fsiakih nas bed svobodi
da zovem Ti:
raduysia, Nevesto Nenevestnaya.

To Thee, the victorious Leader of triumphant hosts, we Thy servants, delivered from evil,
offer hymns of thanksgiving,
O Mother of God!

Since Thou dost possess invincible might, set us free from all calamities,
so that we may cry to Thee:
“Rejoice, O unwedded Bride!”
