Irmos: God, Who descended into the fiery furnace for the Hebrew children and transformed the flame into dew, hymn ye as Lord, O ye works, and exalt Him supremely for all ages!
Valerian, and with him the glorious Aquila and the godly Eugene, together with Candius, the valiant athlete, opposed every evil devising of the persecutors.
Theotokion: In latter years, O pure Virgin who knewest not wedlock, the Son, Who is equally everlasting and unoriginate with the Father, issued forth from thee to save us. Him do thou never cease to entreat, moving Him to have mercy upon us.
Now hath dawned the divinely radiant memorial of the wondrous athletes Valerian, Eugene, Candius and the godly Aquila, which we celebrate with joy and love.
Shining radiantly upon us with beams of splendor, the yearly commemoration hath dawned of the athletes of Christ, the godly Aquila, with Candius, Eugene and Valerian.
