1 Ngigeza, awu Nkulunkulu,

ungimele

uphikise isizwe esingathembekanga;

ngikhulula ebantwini

ababi abalenkohliso.

2 UnguNkulunkulu inqaba yami.

Usungilahlelani na?

Kungani sengizula ngilila

ngincindezelwa yisitha sami na?

3 Thumela ukukhanya kwakho leqiniso lakho,

kakungikhokhele;

kakungilethe entabeni yakho engcwele,

endaweni lapho ohlala khona.

4 Lapho-ke ngizakuya e-alithareni likaNkulunkulu,

kuNkulunkulu, intokozo yami lenjabulo yami.

Ngizakudumisa ngechacho,

Oh Nkulunkulu, Nkulunkulu wami.

5 Kungani wephukile, wena mphefumulo wami?

Kungani udungekile kanje ngaphakathi kwami?

Beka ithemba lakho kuNkulunkulu,

ngoba ngisezakumdumisa, uMsindisi wami

loNkulunkulu wami.
