1Siletha ukubonga kuwe, Oh Nkulunkulu,
2Wena uthi, “Ngikhetha isikhathi esimisiweyo;
3Nxa umhlaba kanye labantu bawo kuzamazama,
4Ngithi kwabayiziqholo, ‘Lingabe lisazincoma,’
5Lingaphakamiseli uphondo lwenu phezulu ezulwini;
6Kakho ovela empumalanga loba entshonalanga,
7Kodwa nguNkulunkulu owahlulelayo:
8Esandleni sikaThixo* kukhona inkezo
9Kodwa mina ngizamemezela lokhu lanini;
