I have no idea unfortunately - it's been almost a decade since I studied Latin! :-( However I just wanted to say that I wouldn't rely on people on the internet for this. Particularly as you are unlikely to find any fluent Latin speakers. Not worth taking the risk of some joker coming on and spurting a bit of bollocks for a 'laugh' and end up getting the wrong phrase inked. I would recommend you find a local school or university that has a Latin department, and forward an email to a Latin tutor there asking very nicely for a translation, hopefully someone will be kind enough to take a couple of minutes out of their day to help you out! In fact I would email a few different places, just on the off chance one got it slightly wrong, I'd go with the majority!
