2Akadaidzira nezwi guru achiti,
“Raparara, raparara Bhabhironi guta guru
rava musha wemweya yakaipa;

nechirugu cheshiri dzose dzakan'ora
necheshiri dzisingadiwi navanhu.
3Ndudzi dzose dzakanwa waini

4Ndakanzwazve rimwe izwi richibva kudenga richiti,
“Budai mariri vanhu vangu.
Mungadaro mukazoitawo zvitadzo zvaro

7Rionesei nhamo murirwadzise

8Pfumvu dzaro dzichariwira nezuva rimwechete,
dzinoti rufu, kuchema rufu, neshangwa yenzara
uye richapiswa nomoto
nokuti Mwari anoritonga ane simba guru.”
9Madzimambo apanyika

pavachaona kutogoka utsi hwokutsva kwaro.
10Vachamira kure uko nokutya

17Neawa imwechete, upfumi hwose uhu hwaparara.

20Imi matenga nemi vatsvene

Itii nomufaro kwariri, ‘Tsvatu waro.’
Nokuti Mwari akaripa chirango

akarikanda mugungwa achiti,
“Ndiko kukundwa zvine utsinye
kuchaitwa Bhabhironi guta guru
