1. Nyana wam, gcina intetho yam,Uyiqwebele kuwe imithetho yam.
2. Gcina imithetho yam, udle ubomi;Nesiyalo sam, njengokhozo lweliso lakho.
3. Yibophe eminweni yakho,Yibhale emacwecweni entliziyo yakho.
4. Yithi kubulumko, Ùngudade wethu;Uthi, Ingqondo sisihlobo;
5. Ukuze ugcinwe kumkamntu,Kowolunye uhlanga, ontetho igudileyo.
6. Kuba ngefestile yendlu yam,Ndíngasemva kwenqwanqwa, ndalunguza;
7. Ndabona phakathi kweziyatha,Ndaqonda phakathi kwamadodana,Umfana oswele intliziyo;
8. Ehambahamba esesitratweni, kufuphi nekhumbi lendlu yomkamntu,Enyathela ngendlela ngasendlwini yakhe;
9. Ngongcwalazi, ukumka komhla,Naphakathi kobusuku esithokothokweni.
