Fungo
Pamene moyo unandichitira ine makadi ake ndinatenthedwa;
Nyengo Yatsopano ya mbandakucha;
Kusakondweretsedwa, chifukwa tsiku lililonse pagalasi ndimakumbutsidwa;
Zowawa, zowawa, chifukwa chake ine pachilonda chilichonse;
Zizindikiro za kupanda chilungamo kwa moyo monga ine moto anaganiza;
Malawi amoto akufuula, anapsa, koma ndinapulumuka.
Mafuta a ululu umenewo ndi chilengedwe chokha chomwe chimadziwa;
Motani ndi chifukwa chiyani, sindingathe kunena;
Anzanga omwe ndinali nawo, adasanduka adani;
Maloto a khungu lofanana, ngakhale pamene ndimasewera ndi ena;
Sichikondi koma chisoni chimene chidawatsegulira zitseko;
Chisoni kapena chikondi, ndinapulumuka.
Moto chida umphawi wanga;
Ine ndimadana kuti Inu ndi ine tiri omangidwa ku moyo;
Womangidwa ndi zonona ndi mankhwala, katundu wanga wokhawo;
Moto ndimakuda koma sindingathe kukhala popanda iwe mkazi wanga,
Tidasanganikirana ndikusokonekera momwe ine ndimawotcha,
Khungu langali mwalanda.
Koma munapanga mphamvu mu mzimu wanga,
NDINAPULUMUTSA!
