1 Yabona, uyinzwakazi, wethu; yabona, uyinzwakazi. Amehlo akho anjengawamavukuthu ngaphaya kwesigqubuthelo sakho; Iinwele zakho zinjengomhlambi weebhokhwe Osemathambekeni eentaba zaseGiliyadi.
2 Amazinyo akho anjengomhlambi weegusha ezichetyiweyo, Ezinyukayo zivela ekuhlanjweni, Zinamawele zonke, Kungekho ifelweyo kuzo.
3 Unjengosinga olubomvu umlomo wakho; Ukuthetha kwakho kumnandi. Zinjengothanda lwerharnate iintlafuno zakho Ngaphaya kwesigqubuthelo sakho.
4 Intamo yakho injengenqaba kaDavide, eyakhiwe ngokweendidi, Ekuxhonywe kuyo iwaka leengweletshetshe, Onke amakhaka amagorha.
5 Amabele akho omabini anjengamankonyana amabini angamawele ebhadi, Esidla phakathi kweenyibiba.
6 Ide iphole imini, oluke amathunzi, Ndiya kuhamba ndiye entabeni yemore, Nasendulini yentlaka emhlophe.
7 Uyinzwakazi kwaphela, wethu; Akukho siphako kuwe.
8 Yiza sihle eLebhanon, mtshakazi, Yiza sihle eLebhanon; Ufike ubonisele encotsheni yeAmana, Encotsheni yeSenire neHermon, Ezikhundleni zeengonyama, ezintabeni zezingwe.
9 Uyingxwelerhile intliziyo yam, dade wethu, mtshakazi; Uyingxwelerhile intliziyo yam ngomjezulo omnye, Ngamrhukane mnye wesambalo sakho.
10 Azi kuhle ukuncokolisa kwakho, dade wethu mtshakazi! Azi kumnandi ukuncokolisa kwakho ngaphezu kwewayini, Nevumba lamafutha akho ngaphezu kobulawu buphelele!
11 Umlomo wakho uvuza incindi, mtshakazi; Bubusi namasi ngaphantsi kolwimi lwakho. Ivumba leengubo zakho linjengevumba leLebhanon.
12 Ngumyezo obiyelweyo udade wethu, umtshakazi; Ngumgogogo ovaliweyo, liliso lomthombo elitywiniweyo.
13 Amahlumelo akho ngumyezo wemirharnate, kunye neziqhamo ezimnandi kakhulu, Ikofere kunye nenadusi;
14 Inadusi nesafron, Ikalamo nesinamon, kunye nemithi yonke yentlaka emhlophe, Imore nehaloti, kunye nobulawu bonke obuyintloko.
15 Uliliso lomthombo lasemiyezweni, Iqula lamanzi aphilileyo, Nemiqukuqela yamanzi yaseLebhanon.
16 Vuka, moya wasentla, uze nawe wasezantsi: Phephezela emyezweni wam, buqukuqele ubulawu bawo. Mayingene intanda yam emyezweni wayo, Idle isiqhamo esimnandi kakhulu.
