Νόνν᾽ ἱερή, σὺ δὲ πάντα Θεῷ βίον ἀντείνασα
ὑστάτιον ψυχὴν δῶκας ἁγνὴν θυσίην
τῇδε γὰρ εὐχομένη ζωὴν λίπες: ἡ δὲ τράπεζα,
μῆτερ ἐμή, τῷ σῷ δῶκε κλέος θανάτῳ.

— Paton edition

Holy Nonna, thou who hadst offered all thy life
to God, didst give him thy soul at the end as a pure
sacrifice. For here thou didst depart this life in
prayer, and the altar gave glory, my mother, to thy
death.
