¶1

Irmos: I have heard, O Lord, the mystery of Thy dispensation; I have understood Thy works, and have glorified Thy divinity.

¶2

In the tribunal of suffering, as in a bridal-chamber, did Christ receive thee, O glorious one, illumined with the radiance of the virtues; and He hath glorified thee.

¶3

Theotokion: Possessing thee as an inexhaustible treasury of gifts, O Mistress, we all receive abundant gifts of miracles through thee.

¶4

The Master hath given thee to all the faithful as healing, O Thalalæus, and by thy divine supplications thou dost heal the sufferings of our souls.

¶5

The torrents of thy blood pour forth the myrrh of healing upon all and drive away the stench of infirmities and sorrows, O Thalalæus.
