Translation:

To the Paschal Victim,

Christians, offer a sacrifice of praise.

The Lamb has ransomed his sheep;

the innocent Christ has reconciled sinners with the Father.

Death and life confronted each other in a prodigious battle;

the Prince of life who died, now reigns living.

Tell us, Mary, what did you see upon the way?

I saw the sepulcher of the living Christ;

I saw the glory of the Risen One.

I saw the angels, his witnesses, the shroud and the garments.

Christ, my Hope, is risen; he will go before his own into Galilee.

We know that Christ is truly risen from the dead;

O Victorious King, have mercy on us.
