Audio Snippet | Source : Qambel Maran - CD |
This is the huthāmma (concluding prayer) from the liturgy for the feast of the Blessed Virgin. The celebrant sings the verses and the congregation responds by singing ‘Amen.’ The text is an example of dodeca-syllabic meter popularized by St. Jacob of Srog (d. 521). Each line has three phrases with four syllables in each phrase: ślām-lēk-mar-yam/dah-wayt- e-mmā/baw-ţū-lū-ţēk. The descending melodic motion is a special feature of this chant; the starting note is also the highest pitch in the melody.

Hail to you Mary, who in your virginity Became mother to the Great One, Who fills the heaven and earth. Hail to you Mary, who in your virginity Became mother of the Ancient One, Whose name existed before the sun, amen. Hail to you Mary, who in your virginity Became mother to the Creator, Who formed Adam from the dust. Hail to you Mary, who in your virginity Became mother to the Great Artist, Who formed Eve and gave her to Adam, amen. Praise to thee my Lord, who was born from her And became man, gained two natures, And two wills in one person. Thanks to thee and to thy Father, And to the Holy Spirit with thee, Three persons, one God, without doubt Now and for ever, amen. |
