Irmos: I rise at dawn to Thee, O compassionate Lord, and I cry unto Thee: illumining my soul, darkened by sins, with the light of Thy commandments, do Thou guide it!
Those slain with the javelin of luxury didst thou revile, O blessed one, as ones who cherish the ease of the belly and transitory and corrupt pleasure.
Theotokion: O Mother and Virgin, Mother of God, through thee may we who confess thee to be the Theotokos receive the kingdom and nourishment which cannot be taken away.
Illumined with rich outpourings of light, thou wast shown to be divinely eloquent and a converser with God, proclaiming the true way of piety to all.
Pray thou, O blessed one, that all who hymn thee may be delivered from the beguilements and snares of the enemy, and that they may be illumined with the heavenly light of the kingdom of Christ.
