Original text and translations

Latin text

Ploremus omnes et lachrimemur miseri dolentes Caesarem perdidimus.
Infelix domus Aragonum.
Spes tua cecidit.
Natura misera tuum decus periit.
Maestissimae virtutes.
Raptus est Maecenas, clamemus ergo maerentes.
Valete gaudia, valete amores.
Solum sint nobis mortes et dolores.
Parce Domine Caesari tuo quia pius es et misericors.
Exaudi nos in aeternum.
