Magdalena degna da laudare "Laudario di Cortona, Italian anonymous, 13th century" 

Magdalena degna da laudare,
sempre degge Dio per noi pregare!
Ben è degna d'essare laudata
ké foe peccatrice nominata:
per servire fo ben meritata,
Iesù Cristo volse sequitare.
Lo suo peccato pianse cum dolore
e del mondo volse uscire d'errore,
et a Cristo cum verace amore
in sue mani si volve commendare.
A li piei de Cristo s'imchinòe
et molto dolcemente li bascione;
di lagrime tutti li bagnòe,
colli capelli presele a 'schiugare.
Mary Magdalene, worthy of praise,
deign plead with the Lord for us always.
Worthy of praise indeed, is she
who was once called a sinner;
her merits made her worthy of
serving the Lord,
Mary magdalene...
She wept bitterly over her sins
and wanted to give up the erring ways of the world;
Out of true love of Christ
she put herself in His hands.
Mary magdalene...
She threw herself at Christ's feet,
and kissed them most sweetly,
and wet them with her tears
and wiped them with her hair.
