Resurrectional Apolytikion Grave Tone
By Your Cross, O Christ our God, You destroyed death. You opened paradise to the thief. You transformed the lament of the Myrrh-bearing women, and You commanded the Apostles to proclaim You are risen, granting the world Your great mercy. -Translation by Narthex Press
Apolytikion for Sunday of St. John Climacus
With the rivers of your tears, you have made the barren desert fertile. Through sighs of sorrow from deep within you, your labors have borne fruit a hundred-fold. By your miracles you have become a light, shining upon the world. O John, our Holy Father, pray to Christ our God, to save our souls. -Translation by Narthex Press
Apolytikion of the Church
Today is the crowning of our salvation and the revealing of the age-old mystery: the Son of God becomes the Son of the Virgin and Gabriel announces the amazing grace. Therefore let us cry out with him to the most blessed Theotokos: Rejoice, O highly favored one, the Lord is with you!
Σήμερον τῆς σωτηρίας ἡμῶν τὸ Κεφάλαιον καὶ τοῦ ἀπ' αἰῶνος Μυστηρίου ἡ φανέρωσις, ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ, Υἱὸς τῆς Παρθένου γίνεται καὶ Γαβριὴλ τὴν χάριν εὐαγγελίζεται, Διὸ καὶ ἡμεῖς σὺν αὐτῷ τὴ Θεοτόκω βοήσωμεν Χαῖρε Κεχαριτωμένη, ὁ Κύριος μετὰ σοῦ.
Kontakion
To you, Theotokos, invincible Defender, having been delivered from peril, I, your city, dedicate the victory festival as a thank offering. In your irresistible might, keep me safe from all trials, that I may call out to you: "Hail, unwedded bride!" - Translation by Narthex Press
