Right-believing Tamara, Queen of Georgia - Troparion & Kontakion

Troparion — Tone 1

Desiring heavenly sweetness, you drove base carnal pleasures far from yourself / and, during your reign, you lived an angelic life; / O blessed Queen Tamara, / pray to Christ God for the salvation of our souls.

Kontakion — Tone 8

O right-believing Queen Tamara, wondrous among the Saints, and luminary of Georgia, / who built temples upon the high mountains, so that in them you might offer prayers to the Lord; / your prayers which gave strength to the Christ-loving warriors of the land of Georgia. / By your right hand, you defeated the throngs of Hagarenes. / Pray to Christ God for the salvation of our souls.*




* In several Russian sources this Troparion is listed as the Kontakion.
