kusukela phakade kuze kube phakade,
Wena, Nkulunkulu, ukhona.
Umuntu uyambuyisela othulini, uthi:
“Buyani, bantwana babantu.”
Ngokuba emehlweni akho
inkulungwane yeminyaka
ingangosuku lwayizolo olwedlule,
imfushane ngangomlindo wasebusuku.
Ubakhukhula njengesikhukhula;

Ekuseni buyahluma, bukhahlele,

Ngubani owazi amandla entukuthelo yakho
nolaka lwakho olunjengokwesabeka kwakho na?
