4 Obon biara bɛyɛ ma,

5 Na Awurade anuonyam bɛda adi,

6 Nne bi kae se, "Teɛ mu."

Na mekae se, "Menteɛ mu nka dɛn?"

"Nnipa nyinaa te sɛ sare,

7 Sare hyew, na nhwiren twintwam

Nokware, nnipa no yɛ sare.

8 Sare hyew, na nhwiren twintwam,

9 Wo a wode asɛm pa reba Sion,

Wo a wode asɛm pa reba Yerusalem,

ma wo nne so na teɛ mu,

10 Hwɛ, Asafo Awurade de tumi reba,

na nʼabasa bedi hene ama no.

Hwɛ, nʼakatua ka ne ho,

11 Ɔhwɛ ne nguankuw sɛ oguanhwɛfo.

Ɔboa nguantenmma no wɔ nʼabasa so

na nguan a wɔwɔ mma no, ɔka wɔn brɛoo.

12 Hena na wasusuw obon mu nsu wɔ ne nsam

15 Ampa ara aman no te sɛ nsu sope wɔ bokiti mu;

17 Aman nyinaa nsɛ hwee wɔ nʼanim;

20 Ohiani a ɔrentumi mfa saa ayɛyɛde yi mma no

25 "Hena ho na wode me bɛto?

Anaasɛ hena na ɔne me sɛ?" Ɔkronkronni no na ose.

26 Momma mo ani so nhwɛ ɔsoro:

Wɔbɛnantew, na wɔrentɔ piti.
