1Sengingenile esivandeni sami, dadewethu, mlobokazi wami;
2Ngalala kodwa inhliziyo yami ivukile.
3Sengisikhulule isigqoko sami
4Isithandwa sami sangenisa isandla saso embotsheni yomnyango;
5Ngavuka ngayasivulela isithandwa sami,
6Ngasivulela isithandwa sami,
7Abalindi bangibona
8Lina madodakazi aseJerusalema, ngiyaliqonqosela
9Isithandwa sakho singcono ngani kulezinye izithandwa
10Isithandwa sami siyakhazimula sincwaba,
11Ikhanda laso liligolide elicengwe kakhulu;
12Amehlo aso anjengamajuba
13Izihlathi zaso zinjengendima yeziyoliso
14Izingalo zaso yimiqwayi yegolide
15Imilenze yaso yizinsika zelitshe
