Principle of faith and the image of meekness,

As a teacher of temperance, thou wast revealed to thy flock,

As the fulfilment of the truth.

Whereby through humility thou hast won the things on high,

Through poverty gained riches.

O hierarch Father Nicholas, pray to Christ our God,

For the salvation of our souls.
