2 «Hayssa ha hada qaalatas ubbaas

zaaro immizay baye?

Asi haasaya daron

3 Iyoobee! Ne haasayda

Ne hayssa mala qilccishin

4 Ne qofan, ‹Tani xillo› gaasa;

Xoossaska, ‹Ne sinththan

5 Xoossi nees haasaydaakkonne

7 «Neni Xoossas ciimma gidida xuura

17 Ne shemppoya seeta gallassa

19 Ne oonaska babbontta ichchana;
