Original text and translations

Latin text

Anna floret sicut lilium in superni regis curia
thronum adepta regium cum immortali gloria,
inter matronas rutilans ut sol mundum illuminans,

Mire pietatis oliva, o radix viva,
ex qua cunctorum processit origo bonorum,
tu nos Anna pia, benedic cum prole Maria.
