Ode 5. Enlighten us.

Purified by the law of love from former stains, you received in your heart, Luke, the spiritual light and shared it with all.

You were clearly revealed as ablaze with the lightning rays of grace, All-blessed Luke, aflame with fiery tongue inspired.

You had longed to journey with wise Paul, for you were addressed as beloved servant, O Evangelist of grace.

Hail, truly the treasure house of virginity, the restoration of the Foremother and the abolition of the curse of the Forefather.
