1. K’i-ni nti-de i-ni e-mi

I-ko-du-de k’a-ta e-kịm,

Mme-si-kọm fi Je-ho-vah

Ke ndi-ka-fak nnyịn nsio k’e-kịm.

Yak i-to-ro E-di-dem nnyịn

Ke ndi-ka-nam a-kpan-i-kọ

A-ya-ma k’e-re-rim-bot

Man i-kọt e-sie ’kpe-du k’u-n̄wa-na.

Yak i-sa-n̄a k’u-fọk k’u-fọk,

Ye ke e-fak i-kwọ-r’i-kọ;

I-wụt mm’o-wo k’a-kpan-i-kọ

E-mi ’kpep-de a-nya-n̄’o-wo.

Di tie-ne kpep kpu-kpru o-wo,

Nam mmọ ẹ-fiọk a-kpan-i-kọ.

Kû-kpa mba ndi-kwọ-r’i-kọ,

Tu-tu Je-ho-vah ọ-dọ-họ e-kem.
