Apolytikion:
Plagal of the First Tone
Not a temporal kingdom on
earth didst thou obtain, but Christ, thy most comely Bridegroom, vouchsafed thee
heavenly crowns, and thou reignest as a queen with Him eternally; for thou didst
dedicate thyself unto Him with all thy soul, O Irene, our righteous Mother, thou
boast of Chrysovalantou, and mighty help of all the Orthodox.
Kontakion:
Third Tone
Leaving all the world
behind with its impermanent glory, thou wast wedded unto Christ, the King
immortal and holy, bringing Him as precious dowry thy maiden beauty and thy
trophies won through abstinence over demons. O Irene, our righteous Mother,
entreat thy Bridegroom to show His mercy to us.
