Resurrectional Apolytikion Fourth Tone
Τό φαιδρόν τής Αναστάσεως κήρυγμα, τού Αγγέλου μαθούσαι αι τού Κυρίου Μαθήτριαι, καί τήν προγονικήν απόφασιν απορρίψασαι, τοίς Αποστόλοις καυχώμεναι έλεγον, Εσκύλευται ο θάνατος, ηγέρθη Χριστός ο Θεός, δωρούμενος τώ κόσμω τό μέγα έλεος.
Apolytikion of the Church
ΑΠΟΛΥΤΙΚΙΟΝ – ΑΓΙΟΥ ΝΙΚΟΛΑΟΥ
Κανόνα πίστεως και εικόνα πραότητος,
Εγκρατείας Διδάσκαλον, ανέδειξε σε την ποίμνη σου,
Η των πραγμάτων αλήθεια δια τούτο εκτήσω τη ταπεινώσει τα υψηλά,
Την πτωχεία τα πλούσια.
Πάτερ Ιεράρχα Νικόλαε, πρέσβευε Χριστώ τω Θεω
Σωθήναι τας ψυχάς ημών.
APOLYTIKION OF ST. NICHOLAS
An example of the Faith and a life of humility, as a teacher of abstinence you did inspire and lead your flock and through your truthfulness of your deeds were exalted by greatness through your humility uplifting all and by poverty gaining wealth. Father and hierarch Nicholas intercede with Christ our God that our souls be saved.

In your holy birth, Immaculate One, Joachim and Anna were rid of the shame of childlessness; Adam and Eve of the corruption of death. And so your people, free of the guilt of their sins, celebrate crying: "The barren one gives birth to the Theotokos, who nourishes our life." - Translation by Narthex Press
Apolytikion for The Miracle at Colassai of Archangel Michael
Τῶν οὐρανίων στρατιὼν Ἀρχιστράτηγε, δυσωπούμέν σε ἀεὶ ἡμεῖς οἱ ἀνάξιοι, ἵνα ταὶς σαὶς δεήσεσι τειχίσης ἡμᾶς, σκέπη τῶν πτερύγων τῆς ἀϋλου σου δόξης, φρουρῶν ἡμᾶς προσπίπτοντας ἐκτενῶς καὶ βοῶντας, ἐκ τῶν κινδύνων λύτρωσαι ἡμᾶς, ὡς Ταξιάρχης τῶν ἄνω δυνάμεων.

O Michael, who standest altogether radiant before the Trinity together with all the heavenly Hosts, and with them dost cry aloud the song inspired of God: As thou dost pass throughout the earth by God's command and art made wondrous with exceedingly great marvels, cease not to intercede for us all. - Translation by Holy Transfiguration Monastery
