1Dai chete wakanga uri sehanzvadzi kwandiri,

Ndaikupa waini yakaiswa zvinonhuhwira kuti unwe,

3Ruoko rwake rworuboshwe rwuri pasi pomusoro wangu,

uye ruoko rwake rworudyi rwakandimbundikira.

Musazunguza kana kumutsa rudo

Shamwari

5Ndianiko uyo ari kuuya achibva kurenje

Mukadzi

Pasi pomuti womuapuro ndakakumutsa;

ipapo mai vako vakakubereka,

6Ndiise pamwoyo pako sechisimbiso,

sechisimbiso paruoko rwako;

nokuti rudo rwakasimba sorufu,

godo rarwo seguva harishanduki.

Runopisa serimi romoto,

7Mvura zhinji haigoni kudzima rudo;

Kunyange munhu akapa

pfuma yose yemba yake kuti awane rudo,

Mukadzi

10Ndiri rusvingo,

11Soromoni aiva nomunda wemizambiringa muBhaari Hamoni;

akapa munda wake wemizambiringa kuvanhu vairima vachimuripira.

Mumwe nomumwe wavo pachibereko chawo

Mukadzi

14Handei mudiwa wangu,

uite semhara kana setsvana
