The icon is very beautiful with its traditional Syriac peacocks of the Resurrection.
Do you sing that wonderful hymn at your parish? It is tremendous. Thank you for posting it. (Is that translation in the Cedars of Lebanon Hymnal?) It is a versification of Sub tuum praesidium, isn't it?

That is the beautiful recessional hymn that was sung at Bishop Mansour's enthronement last year. The Arabic and English text was printed in the missalette issued to commemorate this occasion. (Ping me if you would like the Arabic text as well).
