2Ndo ṱuvha hani iḽa miṅwedzi yo fhiraho,
na aḽa maḓuvha e Mudzimu a vha a tshi nndondola,

4Ndi misi iḽa zwi tshi kha ḓi nnyanḓa,

5ndi misi Ramaanḓaoṱhe a tshi kha ḓi vha na nṋe,

6Muṱa wanga wo vha u tshi shulwa nga ṱhowa,

7Ho vha hu tshi ri ho kuvhangana vhahulwane khoroni ya muḓi,
na nṋe ndó thukha vhukati havho,
8vhaṱhanngana vha tshi ri u mmbona vha sendela kule,

11Vhoṱhe vhe vha pfa bvumo ḽanga vho vha vha tshi nkhoḓa;
vhe vha mmbona vha khoḓa mishumo yanga.
12Vhashai vha tshi lila, ndo vha ndi tshi vha lamukisa,

13Vhe vha vha vho ingamela tshalo, vho vha vha tshi nkhoḓa
nge nda vha tshidza,
nda ita uri mbilu ya tshilikadzi i fhululedze.
14Ndo vha ndi tshi ambara vhuthu unga nguvho,

15ndo vha ndi maṱo a bofu,

16kha vhashai ndo vha ndi tshi nga khotsi,

17ndo vha ndi tshi fhedza maanḓa a vhadziatshiṱuhu;
vhe vha vha vha tshi ṱoḓou pondiwa
nda vha ponyokisa.
18Ndo vha ndi tshi ri ndi ḓo lalama,
maḓuvha anga a anda unga muṱavha wa lwanzhe,
nda fa ndo tangiwa nga vhana vhanga,
19ndi tshi nga muri une midzi yawo ya dzula yo khuba maḓi,
matavhi awo a dzula o ṋukala nga ṅwando,
20vhoṱhe vha tshi dzula vha tshi nkhulisa,

dzi tshi nga vhura vhu no ḓi posa misevhe.
21Musi ndi tshi eletshedza vhathu ho vha hu tshi fhumulwa,
ha thetsheleswa zwine nda amba,
22nda ri u fhedza u amba vha si tsha fhindula,
maipfi anga a nwelela mbiluni dzavho,

23muṅwe na muṅwe a a lindela unga vhalimi vha tshi lavhelela mvula ya tseula;
24ndo vha ndi tshi ri u sea,
vho hanganeaho vha dovha u wana nungo;
naho vhoṱhe vho kulea nungo; nṋe nda ḓi sala ndo khwaṱha.
25Ndo vha ndi tshi vha ranga phanḓa,
nda vha khethela nḓila,
nda vha endedza unga khosi, yo ranga mmbi dzayo phanḓa,
vha tshi lila nda vha fhumudza.
