The easiest way I know of to do this (without manually getting the
coordinates of the corner) is shown below.
In[1]:=
gr=Plot[Sin[x^2]/x,{x,-3,5}]
(* Plot not shown *)
Out[1]=
-Graphics-
In[2]:=
coord=Min/@(PlotRange/.FullOptions[gr]);
In[3]:=
Show[gr,Graphics[Text["Some Text",coord,{-1,-1}]]]
(* Plot not shown *)
Out[3]=
-Graphics-

Notes:
In[n]:= PlotRange/.FullOptions[gr]
gives you the PlotRange used to make (gr).
You can use the option DisplayFunction->Identity to suppress display of
the plot. Then later on you use DisplayFunction->$DisplayFunction to
turn it back on.
