1. Thatha, Yehova, ow’Obuthoki,

Erina lyawu ka lisikibawe.

Ebyosi wanzire bikabya.

Thwakusaba habw’Obwami bwawu.

Kisi Thatha, ka bwase,

Thubane emighisa.

2. Wasingya habw’emighisa yawu,

Ebibuya bingyi ebya wathuha.

Wuli nzuko y’engebe yosi,

Wathuha eriminya, n’amenge.

Thwakuha ewasingya,

Thwakupipa buthumbya.

3. Nomwathune n’amalighe mangyi.

N’iwe maha, wathuhumulikania.

Thwakubwira malighe wethu.

Thuhe maaka w’erithendi lhuha,

Thukole bya wanzire,

Thukole kyo thwalhagha.
