You have understood this temporary world, as if it were passing away, / from your youth you have loved the fasting and laborious life, O all-blessed one, / glory to the hierarchs and praise to the venerables, / the Eternal The words of a zealous evangelist, / of the orphans and those without shelter and refuge. / In the same way, remaining in prayers, Thou didst strive to give Christ matrimony / and, seeking this, an unfading crown with all You have gained saints,/ Our Father, Saint Meletius, // pray to Christ God to save our souls.
