«Iyoobee! Ne xeygiin
nees koyanaadey diikko xeyga;
nees maado immana mala
kiitanchchatappe
awayssako xeellay?
Eeya as yiilloy wodhana;
qanaateykka as dhayssana.
Eeya asi minnidi dishin beyadis;
gido attiin iza aqoy
qoppontta dishin
Xoossa hanqon laalettides.
Iza naytikka ba de7ozas
ammanththizaaz demmettenna;
dubbushankka istta gishshas
haasayza as
istti demmontta gishshas
istta bolla qohoy gakkana.
Izi zerida kaththaaka
koshattida asati maana;
haray attiin agunththa giddon
mokkidayssaka izas ashshettenna;
Saametti uttida asati
iza haaroza ekkanaas amotteettes.
Metoy coo biittafe dendenna;
waayeykka gadeppe coo kezenna.
Tama finxeththi bonqofe dendidi
pude finxiza mala,
asikka waayes yelettees.
«Tani nena gididaakko
Xoossa woossana;
ta meto ubbaa izas qonccisana.
Izi qooday baynda

gita miish ooththees.
Biitta bolla ira bukisees;

Kawuyidayta bonchchon

muuzottizayta minththeththidi
ufayssees.
Istta oosoy polettontta mala
gene asata qofa hada ooththees.
Cinccata istta gene oosozan

Gene asata qofaakka

Gallassay isttas dhuma gidees;
buro seeta gallassan
omars dhuma giddon diza mala
istti tattafettana.
Manqota istta morkketa

Manqotas hidota immees;

«Xoossi seeriza asi anjjettidayssa;
hessa gishshas Ubbaa Dandayza
Xoossa seera leqqofa.2
Xoossi madunththikokka

Usuppun qommo boshappe

Kosha layththan izi nena
shemppora paxa woththana;
ola layththankka izi nena

Xoossi nena iita
inxarsafe naagana;
boshay ne bolla
yiikkoka yayyaka.
Wolqqamata qohoynne
koshay nena daganththenna;
biitta do7ataska ne yayyaka.
Ne goyiza gaden nena
shuchchi waayisenna;
do7atarakka ne saron daana.
Ne keeththan saroy kumanayssa
ne shaakka erana;
ne mehe xeellishin
aqoppe paccenna.
Ne zereththay daranayssa ne erana;
ne zereththayka demban diza
maata mala darana.
Kaththi kaxxidi maxettizayssa mala
nekka lo7eththa cimmada
duufon baana.
Nuni hayssa ubbaa pilggidi
tumu gididayssa eridos;
nenikka akeekada
hayssa ooson peysha.»
