Irmos: With Thy divine light illumine the souls of those who with love rise at dawn unto Thee, O Good One, that they may know Thee, O Word of God, to be the true God Who calleth all forth from the darkness of sin.
Theotokion: O good Mistress of the world, save those who with all their soul confess thee to be the Theotokos; for thee, who art the Theotokos, have we acquired as our invincible intercessor.
Sanctified in godly splendor by most divine rays, O most lauded martyrs, ye sailed across the inconstant abyss of ungodliness and have passed over to divine tranquility.
Cruelly dragged across the ground and wounded by tortures, O most lauded martyrs, ye have received the honors of heaven, having now become fellow citizens with the angels.
Manifestly preferring to die for Christ Who loved thee, O divinely blessed martyr Philemon, thou didst treat the wounds inflicted on thy body as though they were made by the darts of children.
