Happy Easter to you all.

ՍՈՒՐԲ ԱՍՏՈՒԱԾ
The Armenian hymn/Sharakan by Makar Ekmalian that is sung according to the occasion.
ԾԾՆՆԴԵԱՆ
Սուրբ Աստուած սուրբ եւ հըզոր սուրբ եւ անմահ,
Որ ծընարեւ յայտնեցար, ողորմեա մեզ.
ԽԱՉԻ
Սուրբ Աստուած սուրբ եւ հըզոր, սուրբ եւ անմահ,
Որ խաչեցար վասն մերոյ, ողորմեայ մեզ.


ԶԱՏԿԻ
Սուրբ Աստուած սուրբ եւ հըզոր, սուրբ եւ անմահ,
Որ ՅԱՐԵԱՐ ի մեռելոց, ողորմեայ մեզ.*

ՀԱՄԲԱՐՁՄԱՆ
Սուրբ Աստուած սուրբ եւ հըզոր, սուրբ եւ անմահ,
Որ համբարձար փառօք առ հայր, ողորմեայ **մեզ.
* Holy God, mighty and immortal , who rose from the dead. Have mercy upon us.
** In Greek - Kyrie Eleison
Why in red? Has anyone heard of Karmir Zatik/ԿԱՐՄԻՐ ԶԱՏԻԿ, when we dye eggs in RED? Blood of Jesus?
Search an find why the Greeks call "red eggs kokkina avga"
(How to Dye Red Eggs for Greek Easter - Kokkina Avga)
"Kokkina" as in "cochineal red", Armenian- Vordan Karmir, and "avga" as in "ova/ovum", as in the Armenian "havkit/հաւկիթ.

Avo jan, do we really have rabits in Armenian Eastern? I don't think so... but these mormons have something else in mind - playboy bunny?

[MosJan]

ha - et napastak@ inch kap uni mer Zatiki het ???

[AVO]

Mer mechi imastun@ Arpana. But this is one of his least favorite subjects.

How about colorful egs. I know the Armenian eggs used to be colored only dark red color to represent the blood of jesus. But why? How about Rice with raisins.
