Saint Alban, Protomartyr of Britain - Troparion & Kontakion
Troparion — Tone 4
In his struggle your holy martyr Alban, / gained the crown of life, O Christ our God. / For strengthened by you and in purity of heart, / he spoke boldly before the judges of this world, / offering up his head to you, the Judge of all!
Kontakion — Tone 2
(Podoben: “You sought the heights...”)
You appeared as a bright star announcing Christ with your radiance, / which is repulsive to this world, O Martyr Alban; / extinguishing the allure of false gods, / you enlighten the faithful, / always interceding for us all.
