In Ge'ez it is "Egzee'o tesahalene"
In Amharic it is "Abetu maren" or "Abetu yikir belen"
Hiywot.

In a Coptic Church you hear it in three languages (other than English):
Arabic: Ya Rabo Irham!
Greek: Kyrie Eleison (yes we Copts say this a lot)
Coptic: Efnouti Nai Nan (rarely said)
God bless.

Classical Armenian:
Der voghormya
The gh is kind of like a French r, but it's more of a glide.

Coptic: Efnouti Nai Nan (rarely said)
God bless.
Technically isn't "Ef Nooti Nai Nan" (the) God have mercy on us, with "Lord have mercy" being "Ep Chois Nai Nan" (with both used liturgically)? |

Thanks Jonathan; Even in the Ethiopian Church we use 'Chois Nai Nan' Followed by "keri'ye,liasone" albeit only during holy week prostrations. It is redundant. |

I would love to know how to say " Lord have mercy" in all Oriental Orthodox languages. Any help is much appreciated. In Malayalam that is used by the Malankara Church (both Indian Orthodox and Malankara Syriac Orthodox) it is: Naadha Krupa Cheytheedanamee നാഥാ കൃപ ചെയ്തീടണമേ |

In Spanish, it is "Señor ten piedad".  Related: Je nai nan in Spanish and 5 other languages, courtesy of the Coptic mission to the faithful in Bolivia, where now over 400 native Bolivians attend liturgy regularly at the Cathedral of St. Mary and St. Mark in the capital city of La Paz. I hope you guys are as excited to add more "non-traditional" languages to this thread as I am.
