Your protection and your mercy toward us was confirmed by the appearance of your "Hearer" Icon O Sovereign Lady,
before which we pour forth our souls in prayer and we cry out to you with faith:
"Look upon your people, O Merciful one, assuage all our tribulations and sorrows,
send blessed consolation to our hearts,
speedily hear our prayers for the salvation of our immortal souls,
Most Pure one.
