Христос воскресe! (Khristos voskres)
(Christ has arisen! This is the traditional Russian Easter greeting.)
Воистину воскресе! (Voistinu voskrese)
(Indeed, He has arisen! This is the traditional response.)
Plus three kisses, one cheek, two cheek, and back again (the kisses are essential).
Happy Easter!
