Happy Easter

[BeBMan]

With advance apologies for the poor anglicization, "Christos aneste eknekron, thanato thanaton patisos, ketis enties mnemasi zoin harisamenos."

My Portuguese is a bit rusty - the quote means?

[Elok]

It means, "BeBro can't recognize Greek on a website founded by a Greek man."

[BeBMan]

I know it's Greek (Afaik Portuguese is "Cristo"; the -os ending of "Christos" indicates clearly a Greek word), but I played dumb Now can you tell what it means or do you want me to die out of curiosity?

"Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down death by death, and upon those in the tombs bestowing life" is the usual, somewhat flowery English translation. It's the Paschal Troparion, we'll sing it a couple of hundred times through the coming months to various tunes. I put it in Greek because, umm...it's more fun that way?
