Italian.png Italian text

Noi siam care sorelle
gratie ciascun ci chiama,
e nel ciel siamo stelle,
propitie e liete a chi ben opra e ama.

Il mondo ingrato e stolto
rade volte n'accoglie,
perche tutte sue voglie
et ogni suo pensier in terra è volto.

Ma voi alme leggiadre,
cui viva ardente fiamma
di virtu vera in fiamma
lette al sommo Padre.

Voi ne l'opre honorate,
gia mai non vi stanchate,
perche miriate al fine
che tardi non fur mai gratie divine.
