Yayo attu ayo yaari aneemenlhe vachereshere ibahari yo kioo, anari ni achikwesha aavahachiye aya ni Nlhuku. 3 Yaari yiipachaka nchipo ni ashinna Musa, karumiya a Nlhuku ni o Mwaana o Khondoro yiiraka,

Athithi Nlhuku O machiri onkhaye,

Mitheko chinyu chulhupalhe ni cho ushangiha chinene!

Inyuva phi Amwene o ilhapo,

Iphiro chinyu phi cho ikekhiaye ni cho ikeekhene!

4 Thithi, phi mpani hinowoovani inyuva?

Mpani hinothimicha nchina ninyu?

Inyuva vekha inyu phiri Atakatifu.

Attu o makosho onkhaye anouweelhani ni uthimichani,

Ukhalhawaya mitheko chinyu cho iphiro yo ikekhiaye chihoonecheshiya.

Ni vavawo khaawo ntu onrie ukelha nhina Inupa ya Nlhuku mpaka umalha wo mariro saba o minepa saba alhe.
