Translation of the song Песнь 1 artist Batushka

Воду прошед яко сушу

Crossing the waters as on dry land,

И египетского зла избежав,

In that way escaping from the evils of Egypt's land,

Израильтянин вопияше:

The Israelites cried out exclaiming:

Избавителю и Богу нашему поим.

To our Redeemer and God, now let us sing.

Покою души усопших раб Моих.

I give rest to the souls of My departed servants.

Дивен Я во святых моих, Я Израилев.

I am wonderful in My saints: the God of Israel.

Смертию смерть, страстьми Страсть…

Imitated in their deaths the death of Mine, in their sufferings the passion of Mine...

Юности прегрешения презря и грехи превосходя, Я спаше,

I won’t regard the sins in youth of My servants who have fallen asleep before,

Прежде усопшия рабы Моя со избранными Моими сопритчи.

And passing over his their iniquities, I will save them and number them amongst My elect.

Дивен Я во святых моих, Я Израилев.

I am wonderful in My saints: the God of Israel.

Смертию смерть, страстьми Страсть

Imitated in their deaths the death of Mine, in their sufferings the passion of Mine.

Подражавши честную, мученицы вси

All the divine and blessed martyrs

Божественныя и блаженныя жизни получиша.

Have received life.

Покою души усопших раб Моих.

I give rest to the souls of My departed servants.
