1Xabana labo, Thixo* abaxabana lami;
2Thatha isihlangu lewisa;
3Phakamisa umkhonto lesijula,
4Sengathi labo abazingela impilo yami
5Sengathi bangaba njengamakhoba emoyeni,
6sengathi indlela yabo ingaba mnyama itshelele,
7Ngoba bangithiya ngamambule abo ngingonanga lutho,
8sengathi bangadilizwa belibele
9Lapho-ke umoya wami uzathokoza kuThixo*
10Mina qobo lwami ngizamemeza ngithi,
11Ofakazi bolunya bayangivelela;
12Bangiphindisela okuhle ngokubi
13Ikanti kwathi bona begula ngembatha amasaka
14ngaba sesililweni
15Kodwa ngathi sengikhubekile baqwebana bokha insini;
16Bakloloda ngomona njengabangakholwayo;
17Nkosi, uzakuma ubukele kuze kube nini na?
18Ngizakubonga phakathi komhlangano omkhulu;
19Ungabayekeli abayizitha zami ngingabonelanga lutho,
20Kabakhulumi okuqondileyo
21Bangikhamisela imilomo bathi, “Hiya belo!
22Oh Thixo*, usukubonile lokhu; ungathuli.
23Vuka, uphakame ungilamulele!
24Ngigeza ngokulunga Kwakho,
25Ungabayekeli bacabange bathi, “Ehe, yikho ebesikufuna!”
26Sengathi bonke abantela ngokuhlupheka kwami
27Sengathi labo abathokoza ngokugezwa kwami
