Well, since we Indians pronounce many words wrong, let's get this clear:

kyrie eleison_ y and i being as in meet, eagle and beat. Not as in hit or gift. Not as in high or buy
kyrie eleison_ e as in met, get and set. Not as in make or mate.

eleison _ o as in on, born and orange. Not as in hope and elope.

eleison_ z as in zebra, not as in sing.

Right?
