Irmos: Stretching forth his hands, Daniel shut the lions’ mouths in the pit; and the young lovers of piety, girded about with virtue, quenched the power of the fire, crying out: Bless the Lord, all ye works of the Lord!
Released from the flesh, thou wast vouchsafed to behold rays of abundant light, and to dwell in a tabernacle of heaven instead of the dark and gloomy place wherein thou hadst been incarcerated, O glorious one, crying out: Bless the Lord, all ye works of the Lord! Twice
Theotokion: Thou hast truly been shown to be the one who truly gave birth unto the God of truth, bearing the divine name for the faithful in like manner, O all-pure one. Wherefore, with divine wisdom we glorify thee as Theotokos, O all-immaculate Mistress.
Beautiful is the wreath wherewith thou hast now been crowned by the life-creating right hand of the Almighty, O glorious one; for, beholding thee, His bride, empurpled by the streams of thine own blood, He joyfully illumined thee. To Him do we chant: Bless the Lord, all ye works of the Lord!
