13Mfumawo inapokoserwa,

Nsiku ikulu ya MBUYA
14“Nsiku ikulu ya MBUYA ili chifupi,
ili chifupi pontho ikuchimbiza kudza.
Ngavani! Kulira pa Nsiku ya MBUYA

pontho panaveka kukhuwa kwa anyankhondo amphamvu.
15Nsiku yeneyi inakhala nsiku ya ukali,

nsiku ya dzedze pontho kuvungika,
nsiku ya mdima pontho kutsukwala,

16nsiku ya kulizwa kwa ngoma
pontho mkhuwo wa anyankhondo
kumenyana na mizinda yakutchingwa na mpanda,
pontho kumenyana na nsanja za m'nkhomo mwa mpanda.
17“Ine ndinadzesa nyatwa ikulu pana anthu,
tenepo iwo anafamba ninga maboli-boli,
thangwi iwo adawira MBUYA.
Chiropa chawo chinakhuthulira pansi ninga fumbi,
manungo awo anavunda mbanunkha.”
18Nee siliva penu golidi wawo

Na ntchanje yache ya moto,
dziko yonsene yapansi inamala piswa,
thangwi iye anamaliratu gwebede mwakututumusa
anthu onsene akukhala m'dziko yapansi.
