1Aluba nje unjengomfowethu kimi,
2Ngabe ngiyakudonsa
3Ingalo yakhe yobunxele ngiyiqamele
4Madodakazi aseJerusalema, ngiyaliqonqosela:
5Ngubani lo oqhamukayo evela enkangala na,
6Ngibeka ngibe njengesidindo enhliziyweni yakho,
7Impophoma zamanzi ngeke zilucime uthando;
8Silentombazana engumnawethu,
9Uba engumduli,
10Ngingumduli,
11USolomoni wayelesivini eBhali Hamoni;
12Kodwa esami isivini ngesami ukupha santando;
13Wena ohlala ezivandeni labangane
14Masihambe, sithandwa sami,
