Upendo
1 Ata nikalongela kwa luga ya bandu na ya malaika, mana nikotwike baa na upendo yapanga sawasawa na ndu’ti ya lilebe au liki’ngi’li' lyalikong’ondelwa pangali kitumbu. 2 Kai' ata mana nikalondwa no tanga ikowe yoti yaiiyilwe na malango goti, no baa na imani ngu’lu' yo amia itu’mbi', lakini mana nikotwike baa na upendo nenga na kili’be lili. 3 Ata nikapiya mali yangu' yoti na kwapeya aki’ba, kai' na kwipiya yi’ga yangu' itinike mwoto, mana nikotwike baa na upendo, iyangatiali kili’be.
