Original Lyrics

Καλήν ημέραν άρχοντες (Πηλίου)

. . .
Βγαίνουν οι Μάγοι τρέχοντας και τον αστέρα βλέπουν
φθάνοντες εις το σπήλαιον βλέπουν την Θεοτόκον
που βάστα στας αγκάλας της τον ακριβόν της τόκον.
Γονατιστοί τον προσκυνούν και δώρα του χαρίζουν
σμύρνα, χρυσόν και λίβανον, Θεόν τον ευφημίζουν.
Την σμύρναν δε ως άνθρωπον, χρυσόν ως βασιλέα,
τον λίβανον-ε ως Θεόν εις όλην την αυλαίαν.
Αφού τον προσεκύνησαν ιδού πάλι μισεύουν
και τον Ηρώδη μελετούν να παν για να τον εύρουν.
Πλην άγγελος εξ ουρανού βγαίνει τους εμποδίζει
άλλην οδόν να πορευτούν όπου Θεός ορίζει.
Και άλλος πάλι άγγελος τον Ιωσήφ προστάζει
να πάρει και την Μαριάμ εις Αίγυπτον να πάει.
