by Zacharias Papantoniou (1877 - 1940)

Ē proseuchē tu tapeinoy
Language: Greek (Ελληνικά) 
Kyrie, san ērthen ē bradia, su leō tēn proseuchē mu.
'Allē psychē den eblapsa ston kosmo ap' tē dikē mu.
Ekeinoi pu me plēgōsan ētan agapēmenoi.
Tēn pikra mu tē bastaxa. Mu dineis kai tēn xenē.

M' aparnēthēkan oi chares. Den tis gyreyō pisō.
Prosmenō ta cheirotera. Ein' amartia na elpisō.
San eutychia tēn agapō tēs nychtas tē phobera.
Stēn porta mu allos den [chtypa kaneis]1 ap' ton agera.

Den echō doxa. Ein' ēsycha ta erga pu echō praxei.
'Akusa tē glykia brochē. Tē dysē echō koitaxei.
'Edōka sta paidia chares, se skylus ligo chadi.
Zeugades kalēsperisa pu gyrizan to brady.

Tōra den echō tipota na diōxō ē na kratēsō.
Den perimenō antamoibē. Poly' nai tetoia elpida.
Eudokēse n' aphanistō chōris na xanazēsō...
S' eucharistō gia ta buna kai gia tus kampus pu eida.
