Lyrics: Anon
Innocentes pro Christo infantes occisi sunt,
ab iniquo rege lactentes interfecti sunt:
ipsum sequuntur Agnum sine macula,
dicunt semper: Gloria tibi Domine.
Innocent infants were slain in Christ's stead;
suckling boys were murdered by a wicked king:
they instantiate the spotless Lamb himself,
and forever they say: Glory be to thee, O Lord.
Innocentes pro Christo infantes occisi sunt,
