print the line immediately after a regexp; but regexp is a sentence

Good Day,

Im new to scripting especially awk and sed. I just would like to ask help from you guys about a sed command that prints the line immediately after a regexp, but not the line containing the regexp.
sed -n '/regexp/{n;p;}' filename

What if my regexp is 3 word or a sentence. Im using date as my starting point for my logs because its based on a tail alert log that updates daily. sample of it is below:

Completed: ALTER DATABASE RECOVER CANCEL
Starting ORACLE instance (normal)

ORA-1100 signalled during: alter database mount standby database...

Hope you could help me out because im really stuck here for my script.Smilie
