ῥίζης εὐσεβέος γενόμην καὶ σὰρξ ἱερῆος,
καὶ μήτηρ: Χριστῷ σῶμα, βίον, δάκρυα,
πάντ᾽ ἐκένωσα φέρουσα: τὸ δ᾽ ἔσχατον, ἔνθεν ἀέρθην
νηῷ γηραλέον Νόννα λιποῦσα δέμας.

— Paton edition

Springing from a pious root I was the flesh of
and the mother of a priest. To Christ I brought my
body, my life, my tears, emptying out my all ; and
last of all here in the church I Nonna was taken up,
leaving my aged body.
