The whole Holy Mount Athos and all its desert and fields manifest the blessing of God in themselves: of them are the fruitful trees of Jesus' paradise, the cathedral of the great holy fathers Athonite, who are satisfied with spiritual fruits, with a grateful heart and mouth the following verb to them:
Rejoice, angels of earth and people of Heaven.
Rejoice, smell the fragrance of the desert vegetation.
Rejoice, having enraged Mount Athos with your Heavenly virtues.
Rejoice, you who intercede before the Lord for the whole Christian world.
Rejoice, chosen ones of God, your election has been witnessed by many miracles.
Rejoice, crown bearers of good victories, crowned by the right hands of Christ.
Rejoice, reverend fathers of Athos, for the zeal for the souls of our prayer books.
