Include text on the splash screen Android

Question

I am using this popular method from this site to make a splash screen: Splash Screens the Right Way.

And I want to display a translated text "loading" to different languages. This was asked earlier in the comments section, and the author replied, but I do not know how to do what he says. Here is what he replied: https://www.bignerdranch.com/blog/splash-screens-the-right-way/#comment-2633426495

How can i draw the text on the screen? (If it's posible) Or as it says there, How to "include" it in the drawable?

Is another method preferable?

Here is my splash activity xml
This is an easy solution and places the text bellow the image.

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="@color/colorIcons"
tools:context=".SplashActivity">

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/splashImage"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginBottom="30dp"
        android:gravity="center_horizontal"
        android:scaleType="fitCenter"
        android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher">
    </ImageView>

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/splashText"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:gravity="center_horizontal"
        android:text="@string/app_name"
        android:textColor="@color/colorPrimary_text"
        android:textSize="36sp" />
</LinearLayout>
