1Ndauya zvangu mubindu rangu, hanzvadzi yangu, iwe mwenga wangu;
2Ndakavata asi mwoyo wangu wakanga wakasvinura.
3Ndabvisa nguo yangu,
4Mudiwa wangu akapinza ruoko rwake nepahwangwadza yomukova;
5Ndakasimuka kuti ndizarurire mudiwa wangu,
6Ndakazarurira mudiwa wangu,
7Varindi vakandiona
8Imi vanasikana veJerusarema, ndinokurayirai,
9Mudiwa wako akanaka kukunda vamwe pakudii,
10Mudiwa wangu akanaka uye mutsvuku,
11Musoro wake igoridhe chairo;
12Meso ake akafanana nenjiva
13Matama ake akaita semihomba yezvinonhuhwira
14Maoko ake itsvimbo dzegoridhe
15Makumbo ake imbiru dzamabwe machena
