Apolytikion for Removal of the Relics of St. Athanasios the Great
You became a pillar of Orthodoxy, strengthening the Church with divine dogmas, O Hierarch Athanasios. For by preaching that the Son is one in essence with the Father you put Arius to shame. O venerable Father, to Christ our God pray earnestly, entreating that great mercy be on us bestowed. -Translation by Fr. Seraphim Dedes

Having planted the dogmas of Orthodoxy, thou didst cut out the thorns of false doctrine; and with the rain of the Spirit, thou didst increase the seed of the Faith, Wherefore, we praise thee, O righteous Athanasius. -Translation by Holy Transfiguration Monastery, Brookline, MA
Apolytikion for The Dormition of our Most Holy Lady the Theotokos and Ever Virgin Mary
In birth, you preserved your virginity; in death, you did not abandon the world, O Theotokos. As mother of life, you departed to the source of life, delivering our souls from death by your intercessions. -Translation by Narthex Press
Kontakion
Neither the grave nor death could contain the Theotokos, the unshakable hope, ever vigilant in intercession and protection. As Mother of life, He who dwelt in the ever-virginal womb transposed her to life. -Translation by Narthex Press
