Hatigoni kuverenga chita chavanoyera,

Vane nguvo dzakachena vanobata michindwi.

2. Vadzibaba, vaProfiti vakagadzera nzira

VaProstori, vaMatari, navo vaVangeriwo;

NeVakadzi neMhandara vese vane chitendo,

Vese vanoimba pamwe kumutunhidza Mwari.

3. Vabva mumatambudzo vakasuka nguvo dzavo

Muropa raTenzi Jesu, vakashinga kumira

Vakasungwa nokusekwa, vakakorera kufa,

Vakakunda rufo pasi ngemusimba raJesu.
