1 Nkosi yam, ulikhaya wena kuthi,Isizukulwana ngesizukulwana.
2 Kungekazalwa zintaba,Ùngekavelisi mhlaba, nazwe limiweyo,Kususela kwaphakade kude kuse ephakadeni, wena unguThixo.
3 Ùmbuyisela umntu eluthulini,Ùthi, Buyani, nyana babantu.
4 Ngokuba iwaka leminyaka emehlweni akhoLinjengemini yezolo, xa idluleyo,Linjengomlindo wasebusuku.
5 Uyabakhukulisa, balale;Ngengomso babuya bahlume njengotyani.
6 Ngomso butyatyamba, bubuye buhlume;Ngokuhlwa buyasikwa bome.
