Coptic Acts- Feast of the Ressurection

Does anyone have the coptic lyrics for the Acts sung on the Feast of the Resurrection? I just need the middle part (starts with niroumi, ends with efnotee). Thanks!

Originally the Quoran was not sung. Many Muslim scholars consider Quoranic tunes as a Coptic influence. That is why now in Egypt some fanatics try to avoid any melody in the call to prayer. It is said that during the Muslim persecution of the Egyptians, as some church moallems converted to Islam they endowed Islam with its current musical heritage. What we currently call Arabic melodies are generally a genre that evolved out the fusion of Coptic, Hebrew, Persian and Greek. But since original Coptic tunes are generally older, they tend to be more austere and venerable. Thus more befitting to occasions such as the Paschal week.
