4 A la saŋ ŋalasoo ka duniyaa fanundi,

5 Konkoolu ka yeluŋ Yaawe ñaatiliŋo la le komeŋ kandiyoo,

6 Saŋ fatoolu ka a la tiliŋo kankulaa,

7 Moolu mennu ka jalaŋ kenseŋolu batu,

Jalaŋolu bee ka boyi Yaawe ñaatiliŋo la le.
8 Siyoni* moolu ye ite Yaawe la kiitindiroolu moyi le,

9 Yaawe, ite le mu maralilaa baa ti duniyaa kunto.
Ite warabaata le ka tambi alloolu bee la.
10 Yaawe ye moolu le kanu

11 A la beteyaa tilimaa le ka mala moo tilindiŋolu kaŋ,
aduŋ seewoo be moolu le ye,

12 Ali seewoo Yaawe la kuwo to, moo tilindiŋolu,
ali ye a tentu niŋ a too senuŋo la!
