¹Mugumye, mugumye abantu bange,

²Muzzeemu Yerusaalemi amaanyi mumubuulire nti,

³Eddoboozi ly’oyo ayogera

⁴Buli kiwonvu kirigulumizibwa,

⁵Ekitiibwa kya Mukama kiribikkulwa,

⁶Ne mpulira eddoboozi nga ligamba nti,

⁷Omuddo guwotoka, ekimuli kiyongobera,

⁸Omuddo guwotoka, ekimuli kiyongobera,

⁹Ggwe abuulira Sayuuni ebigambo ebirungi,

¹⁰Laba, Mukama Katonda ajja n’amaanyi mangi

¹¹Aliisa ekisibo kye ng’omusumba,

¹²Ani eyali ageze amazzi g’ennyanja mu kibatu kye,

¹³Ani eyali aluŋŋamizza Omwoyo wa Mukama?

¹⁴Ani gwe yali yeebuuzizzako amuwe ku magezi,

¹⁵Laba amawanga gali ng’ettondo eriri mu nsuwa,

¹⁶N’ensolo zonna ez’omu kibira kya Lebanooni tezimala kubeera kiweebwayo eri Katonda waffe,

¹⁷Amawanga gonna ag’omu nsi

¹⁸Kale ani gwe mulifaananya Katonda?

¹⁹Ekifaananyi ekyole omukozi akifumba,

²⁰Oyo omwavu atasobola kufuna ffeeza

²¹Temunnamanya,

²²Katonda atuula ku nsi enneekulungirivu,

²³Afuula abafuzi obutaba kintu,

²⁴Bali ng’ebisimbe ebyakamera biba bya kasimbibwa,

²⁵“Kale mulinfaananya ani,

²⁶Muyimuse amaaso gammwe mulabe ebiri ku ggulu.

²⁷Lwaki ogamba ggwe Yakobo era ne wemulugunya ggwe Isirayiri nti,

²⁸Tonnamanya?

²⁹Awa amaanyi abazirika,

³⁰Abavubuka bazirika, bakoowa,

³¹Naye abo abalindirira Mukama
