USihlala sithe nkqi isaphetha sakhe,
UMikhono yezandla zakhe inokusityeda,
Ngezandla zembalasane kaYakobi,
Khona apho akhoyo umalusi, ilitye likaSirayeli;
NgoThixo wooyihlo — akuncede,
NgoSomandla — akusikelele,
Ibe ziintsikelelo zamazulu ezivela phezulu,
Iintsikelelo zamanzi enzonzobila alele ezantsi,
Iintsikelelo zamabele, nezesizalo.
