Is there a localised version of the send button for use with the send dialog?

I'm adding a send button for sending a link to a friend within a canvas application on a page tab:

            $(anchorTag).bind('click',function(e){
                //console.log($(this));
                e.preventDefault();
                      FB.ui({
                    method: 'send',
                    name:$(this).attr('title'),
                    display: 'iframe',
                    link: $(this).attr('href')
                    });

            });

I would like to have an icon like send button as the image for my button but I need to localise the text for different languages. Do I need to craft my own using CSS or is this button available via the API?

In the documentation of the Like Button and Send Button it has a section about different languages, but the one in the Like is a bit more detailed:

How do I display the Like button in different languages?

If you are using the XFBML version include the language code when you instantiate the library. Replace ‘en_US’ in this line with the correct locale code:

'//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js';

If you are using the Iframe version include a locale parameter with the proper country code in the src URL. Example:

src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?locale=fr_FR&..."

You may need to adjust the width of the Like button to accommodate different languages.
