Original text and translations

Latin text Gáudent in caélis ánimae Sanctórum, Qui Chrísti vestígia sunt secúti; Et, quía pro éius amóre sánguinem súum fudérunt, Ideo cum Chrísto régnant in aetérnum.

English translation The souls of the Saints rejoice in heaven who followed the footsteps of Christ; and, because for his love they shed their blood, therefore they reign forever with Christ.
