The Eucharist in Aramaic (Maronite Liturgy)

The Eucharist in the Maronite mass is always chanted in Aramaic, regardless of what the mass language is (Aramaic, Arabic, French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, etc.).
Below is the English translation:

On the day before his life-giving passion,
Jesus took bread in his holy hands.
He blessed,
sanctified,
broke,
and gave it to his disciples saying:
Take and eat it, all of you:
This is my body
which is broken and delivered for you and for many,
for the forgiveness of sins and eternal life. Amen

Likewise he blessed the cup of wine mixed with water,
sanctified,
and gave it to his disciples, saying:
Take and drink from it, all of you:
This is my blood of the new covenant,
which is shed and handed over for you and for many,
for the forgiveness of sins and eternal life. Amen

Below is the transliteration in Latin alphabet with English accent. Remember, some letters in Aramaic have no equivalent in English or Latin. I hope it will help people who asked for it.

Beyamo haw daqdom hasho deeleh maabed haaye, Nsab l lahmo bedaw qadishoto, wbarech wqadesh qso wyab ltalmedaw qad omar: "Sab akool meneh qolkoon, Hono deneetaw FAGRO deel, dahlofaykoon wa hlof sagueye meteqsee w metiheb, lhoosoyo dhawbee walhayee dalolam olmeen. Amen

Can someone please post the transliterated words of this prayer in Aramaic in the latin/english alphabet. This is very beautiful, it should be the language used for every eucharist in every church.

[maronites]

@MegaKrishan123 I did the transliteration as much as possible and it is under the movie >> "show more" >> scroll down . Some letters in Aramaic don't exist in English.

I hope you will be able to follow it and enjoy it if you like it.

why in aramaic? didn't jesus celebrate passover in the liturgical hebrew?

[maronites]

@henrikhankhagnell Friend, if you are counting forward Hebrew is a derivative from Aramaic such as Eastern Syriac, Western Syriac and many other languages. It you are counting backward, it is a different story

[dzheremi]

Why? Why must you come to a Christian video and say these things? Please, let those of us who believe in our faith enjoy this beautiful video in peace. You don't have to agree with it to enjoy it, but you can at least respect the faith of the Maronite believers enough to keep your comments to yourself or to your own community. We already know Muslims and others don't believe in Christ's divinity. We DO, and so this act means as much to us as anything you believe means to you.

How beautiful it is to chant and pray with the language of our lord Jesus Christ.

[pardetoledo]

@henrikhankhagnell Jesus was just speaking on the last supper to his disciples that words. He was not praing. Later this words became a pray.

[pardetoledo]

@henrikhankhagnell But Jesus has spoken aramaic with his disciples on last supper. Hebrew was spoken only in the temple or synagogue. Hebrew was only a liturgical language in that times.

[freeoneforever1]

@henrikhankhagnell The Jews lost their language and adopted the Aramaic as their own long before Jesus there is no Hebrew language spoken for thousands of years

Shafiro. Unfortunately the Catholic church decided that you should abandon your Syriac "heretical" heritage and replaced it with the Arabised Latin one. Let's hope next generations are more caring about their tradition and language.
