Original text and translations
Alleluia! In the dead of night, hither cometh the bridegroom And the servant that he findeth watchful shall blessed be But he shall not find worthy the servant slumbering.
Awake O my soul therefore. Let not sleep encumber thee, Lest unto death thou be abandoned and barred from the kingdom.
But stir thyself, ever crying, "Holy, holy, holy art Thou, O God, and with Mary, Theotokos, Kyrie Eleison."
