Lero ndi Sabata,
chete chikumveka pafupi.
Ndikumira m'maganizo olemera
Chifukwa sindingakhale nawe.
Mtunda uwu pakati pathu,
womwe umaoneka sungathyoleke,
Ukutsitsa pansi,
palibe chimene ndingachite chifukwa cha ife.
Tikadatha kugwa mapazi okha,
tikumane pa njira pakatikati.
Chiyembekezo chitha kuchotsa mdima,
kuti chipatso chiyambe.
Tikadatha kutambasula manja,
kuti ululu uwu uthele,
kuti nthawi yatsopano itipeze
ndi kukoma kwa chikondi kupambana.
Tikima kutali kwambiri
ndipo timamva nkhani zambiri,
za Mulungu wa chifundo,
wofunidwa nthawi zonse.
Koma ngati timamva mzimu umodzi
womuzungulira tonse, bwanji,
tikutsiriza m'chidani,
yankho lili pafupi kwambiri.
Tikadatha kugwa mapazi okha,
tikumane pa njira pakatikati.
Chiyembekezo chitha kuchotsa mdima,
kuti chipatso chiyambe.
Tikadatha kutambasula manja,
kuti ululu uwu uthele,
kuti nthawi yatsopano itipeze,
ndi kukoma kwa chikondi kupambana.
Ndikudziwa, nzovuta kwambiri,
kupempha mkhululukiro ndi
kunena chimene tifuna.
Chifukwa chiyani tili osakuchitira chifundo?
Mawu aliyense a mnzake amumveka olakwika,
koma choonadi chili ndi mbali zambiri.
Chifukwa chiyani tili osakuchitira chifundo?
Tsamalani mkangano wawo!
Ndi liti pomwe tidzakhala okonzeka?
Titha kugwa mapazi awa,

Chiyembekezo chitha kuchotsa mdima

Tatambasula manja tsopano,
kuti ululu uwu uthele,
kuti nthawi yatsopano itipeze
ndi kukoma kwa chikondi kupambana.
