1 Ta shemppoya Xoossan xalla

shemppo demmawus;

2 Izi xalla taas zaallanne

mulekka hirgike.

3 Cimmidi kundana matida

musida lasha mala

wolqqay baynda as

dhayssanawu sugishe

awude gakkanaas de7andetii?

4 Istti iza bonchcho sohoppe

kawushshanaas xalla koyeettes;

istti wordon ufayetteettes;

bantta doonan anjjeettes;

5 Ta shemppoyee!

Woppu gaada Xoossa xalla naaga;

6 Izi xalla taas zaallanne

10 Bonqqan ammanettofte;

hidota ooththofte.

Inttes dureteththi darikkoka

intte wozina iza bolla woththofte.

11 Xoossay issito haasaydes;

heytikka, «Wolqqay Xoossassa;

12 mernaa siiqoy Xoossassa.»

Abeet Godawu!

Neni as ubbaas

iza ooso ooso mala immana.✝
