Ikimombo mu kihugo kyeꞌmahanga
Ikyanya twâli bwatiiri ku ngombe zeꞌnyiiji zeꞌBabeeri,
twanakengeera akaaya keꞌSayuni, twanatondeera ukulira.
Ee! Ku kirya kyanya,
tukatee manika inzeeze ziitu ku biti byazo.
Balya ábakatutwala i mahanga,

Ee! Yabo ábâli kizi tushundeeza, bâli loziizi kwo tubashambaaze, banakizi tuhidika, ti:
«Mu zirya nyimbo zeꞌSayuni, mutee tuyimbiraga luguma.»
Aahago! Twe tuhungiiri mu kihugo kyeꞌmahanga,
kutagi kwo twangaki yimba mweꞌnyimbo za Nahano?
E kaaya keꞌYerusaleemu, iri nangakuyibagira,
ukuboko kwani kweꞌlulyo kunahangalale.
Iri nangaleka ukukizi kukengeera,
na mbe ndaki bwini kwo we tumiri tushambiiri,
ululimi lwani lunagobwe.
 
E Nahano, i Yerusaleemu, ulusiku abagoma bakagigwata imbohe,

«Yako kaaya, mukahongole.
Ee! Mukunyule kiri neꞌndaliro zaako.»
E maashi, bandu beꞌBabeeri, si mwenyene mukolaga mugaminikwa!

Bahiriirwi, ngiisi ábagayiji gwata abaana biinyu,
banakizi bashangula ku maala.
