You have stained the royal diadem with your blood, O Great Martyr of God, / you have taken the cross in your hand for the scepter, / you have appeared victorious, / and you have brought an immaculate sacrifice to yourself God./ From your parents you were deprived of the apple of your eyes,/ and you were in captivity,/ and you were strangled from your own./ And now, rejoicing, you stand before the Holy Trinity./ Thus we celebrate Today is the transfer of your honorable relics / and the renewal of the honorable ark, / Blessed Stephen, praying for the power of your relatives, / it would be more pleasing to her / / and the Serbian sons to be saved.
