1 Sikiza! Ikima anakuiha.
2 Aimire maganiko ga njira
3 Aimire phephi na maryango ga kumenyera mudzi,
4 “Mwinoo! Mino naiha mwimwi,
5 Mwino azuzu dzifundzeni kukala alachu,
6 Niphundzani mana nigombaro ni dzambo muhimu
7 Mromo wangu unagomba kpweli tuphu
8 Maneno gosi galago mwangu mromoni ni ga haki,
9 Mutu mwenye ufahamu andaelewa maneno gangu
10 Inafwaha utsambule mafundzo gangu kuriko feza
11 Mana ikima ni bora kuriko mawe ga samani sana
12 Mimi ikima nina ulachu,
13 Kumuogopha Mwenyezi Mlungu ni kuzira uyi,
14 Nina uwezo wa kushauri na ikima halisi,
15 Kpwa msada wangu afalume nkutawala
16 Atawala alongoza na msada wangu
17 Ninaamendza hara animendzao
18 Utajiri na ishima i kpwangu,
19 Matunda gangu ni bora kuriko zahabu swafi
20 Ninanyendeka kahi-kahi ya haki,
21 Ninaatajirisha hara animendzao,
22 Mwenyezi Mlungu waniumba mwandzo wa kaziye,
23 Nátsambulwa pho kare,
24 Návyalwa kabila ya vilindi vya bahari,
25 Nákalapho kabila ya myango
26 Kabila Mwenyezi Mlungu kuumba tsi na minda
27 Nákalapho ariphotengeza dzulu mlunguni,
28 Nákalapho ariphoika imara maingu hiko dzulu,
29 Nákalapho hipho Mlungu ariphoyiikira miphaka bahari
30 Mino nákala phamwenga naye kama fundi mangungu.
31 Náfurahia dunia na anadamu akalao mumo,
32 Sambi phahi, anangu niphundzani,
33 Gbwirani mafundzo gangu mkale na ikima,
34 Mutu aniphundzaye ana baraka,
35 Mana aniphahaye mimi ana uzima,
36 Ela anikosao analumiza mioyo yao enye,
