Soson Kyrie - Spiritual Anthem

Troparion of the Holy Cross, Tone I:

O Lord, save thy people,
and bless thine inheritance!
Grant victory to the Orthodox Christians,
over their adversaries,
and by virtue of thy cross,
preserve thy habitation.

@TheSyndicateGreece Thanks for the historical info :) I was pointing out that in this particular video it's "kata varvarwn," but I appreciate the background!

@jkslater3 no it's actually "kata Voulgaron", the chant was written for Basil II Macedonian (the Bulgarslayer). The chant changed lyrics quite a few times as you understand.

@TheSyndicateGreece Actually, it's "against Barbarians," not Bulgarians! :p (Kata Barbarwn)

Very well, very well, only some minor notes: The original chant mentions granting victory to the king (meaning the Roman Emperor) and its not "over adversaries" but "over Bulgarians". Some minor facts, nothing very important.
