Ndaigonawo kutaura sezvamunoita. Dai murimi izvozvi ndingadai ndichivirikidzanisa mazwi pamuri, ndichikudzungudzirai musoro. Ndingadai ndichikusimbaradzai namazwi omuromo wangu ndichikunyaradzai zvisina mugumo. Kana ndikataura, kurwadziwa kwangu hakumiri. Ndikati ndinyarare kurwadziwa hakundisiye. “Chokwadi chokwadi zvino, Mwari mandisakadza, makandiparadzira mhuri yangu yose. Makaita kuti ndiperezeke muviri kuonda kwangu ndicho chapupu changu chinonongedza kwandiri mhosva yangu. Mwari akandibvambura-bvambura aine hasha, akandivenga, akandichenamira meno muvengi wangu akandidzvondorera maziso vanondishamira muromo kwazvo vachindituka, vachindipamhadza padama, vose vachindimukira.

Anondibaya mativi ose nemiseve yake anondifushunurira pasi nduru zvisina tsitsi. Anondirova andirovazve, anomhanya kwandiri sezvinoita gamba rokurwa. Ndasonera ganda rangu hembe dzamasaga. Mbiri yangu ndakairega ichiti warara zvayo pasi. Uso hwangu hwatsvuka ropa. Pamaziso angu pane mumvuri worufu. Asi maoko angu akachena uye kunamata kwangu ndekwepachokwadi. “Iwe nyika rega kufushira ropa rangu kuchema kwangu ngakurege kugara pasi. Nazvino chapupu changu chiri kudenga uye anonditsigira ari kumusoro. Shamwari dzangu dzinonditarisa dzichishora, meso angu achamokotekera Mwari misodzi. Dai waro paine angareverere munhu pana Mwari, sezvingaitwe pakati pomunhu nomumwe wake?
