1. Thatha Yehova, abirihiraho

Olhwanzo lhungyi olhwa thwanga kwama,

Isithwawa,

Kwama enzira yiwe ey’olhwanzo;

Eyihikene, ’rikolha bibuya;

Ni y’obuholho, yaletha bughuma.

Y’ey’olhwanzo.

Ka ni y’olhwanzo.

2. Thwamabya muyo, thwanza balikyethu,

Kwenene, Kutsibu;

Omwa byosi,

Kya thuwathikya erighanyirana,

Kya thuwathikya eribya n’olhwanzo,

Kya leka ’thw’igha olhwanzo lhwa Thatha,

Thwanze kundu,

Abalikyethu.

 3. Thwanza Yehova n’erimukolere

Thwanza ’rimwowa ’rilhua mwa muthima,

Thubwire bandi bowe ’rina liwe;

Ka balhangire ’kwenene ya ndeke.

Mubiiri wiwe ongere ’rikanya,

Ka lhw’olhwanzo.

Olhwo lhw’olhwanzo.
