1 Awo Yobu n’amuddamu nti,
2 “Awatali kubuusabuusa muli bantu.
3 Naye nange nnina amagezi ntegeera,
4 Nfuuse ekisekererwa eri mikwano gyange.
5 Abantu abali mu ddembe lyabwe batera okusekerera abali mu mitawaana,
6 Weema z’abanyazi tezibaako mutawaana,
7 Naye buuza ensolo zijja kukuyigiriza,
8 Oba yogera n’ettaka linaakusomesa
9 Biki ku bino ebitamanyi nti,
10 Buli bulamu bwa kitonde buli mu mukono gwe,
11 Okutu tekugezesa bigambo
12 Amagezi tegasangibwa mu bakaddiye?
13 Katonda y’alina amagezi n’amaanyi;
14 Ky’amenya teri ayinza kuddamu kukizimba;
15 Bw’aziyiza amazzi, ekyeeya kijja,
16 Ye, ye nannyini maanyi n’obuwanguzi,
17 Aggyawo abawi b’amagezi nga tebalina kantu,
18 Bakabaka abaggyako enjegere ze beesiba ebiwato byabwe,
19 Bakabona abatwala nga tebalina kantu,
20 Aziba emimwa egy’abawi b’amagezi abeesigwa,
21 Ayiwa ekivume ku bakungu,
22 Abikkula ebintu eby’ebuziba eby’ekizikiza,
23 Afuula amawanga okuba ag’amaanyi, era n’agazikiriza;
24 Abakulembeze baamawanga abaggyako okukola ebisaanidde;
25 Bawammantira mu kizikiza awatali kitangaala;
