Boston Byzantine Choir chanting Paschal Troparion in Mandarin Chinese

[familyphilo]

Who wrote that beautiful icon you have there? Christ Is Risen!

The words may be difficult to understand with the non-Chinese accent. Here are the lyrics according to my Chinese friend: 基督已经从死里复活， 他的死除我死亡， 把生命赐给已埋葬在墓中的人 Pinyin: JIDU yijing cong-si-li fuhuo tade si chu wo siwang ba shengming cigei yi maizang-zai-muzhong-de ren English translation word-for-word : CHRIST has from-in-death reborn, his death detach/destroy our death, given life bestowed [he] has [to the] buried-in-the-grave people.
