[1] Ya Rabb ! Inta abeetna wa dammartina. Inta khidibt leena // laakin gabbilna aleek !
[2] Inta rajjaft al-ard wa chaggagtaha. Aalij chuguugha achaan hi tidoor tinhazza !
[3] Inta chawwaft al-murr // leena aniina chaʼabak, aywa, charrabtina khamar al-yiliff al-raas.
[4] Le l-yakhaafo minnak, // inta wassaft leehum alaama le yiʼarrudu min siyaad al-nuchchaab. Wagfa.
[5] Rudd leena wa be iidak al-zeene, najjiina achaan mahbuubiinak yalgo al-naja.
[6] Al-Rabb kallam // fi bakaanah al-mukhaddas : «Ana ninbasit ! // Wa nigassim hillit Chakiim wa nigaawis waadi Sukkuut.
[7] Turaab Gilʼaad leyi wa ard Manassa kula leyi. Wa ard Afraayim misil taagiiye // al-tahmi raasi wa balad Yahuuza misil asaat mulki.
[8] Balad Muwaab misil maaʼuun baruudi wa balad Adoom misil bakaan // al-nazgul foogah naʼaali. Wa didd balad al-Filistiyiin, nikoorik korooraak al-harib.»
[9] Yaatu al-yiwaddiini // le l-madiina al-gawiiye ? Yaatu al-yuguudni // lahaddi balad Adoom ?
[10] Ma inta, al-Ilaah al-taradtina walla ? Ma inta, al-Rabb, al-aba ma yamrug maʼa askarna walla ?
[11] Taʼaal ! Saaʼidna didd aduuna achaan fazaʼ al-insaan ma madmuun.
[12] Wa laakin maʼa l-Rabb, nalgo al-gudra wa hu bas yifajjikh udwaanna !
