Utando lunokuzeka kade, lunobubele; utando alunozondo; utando aluzidli, aluvutelani, alwenzi ngokungafanelekileyo, alufuni okwalo, alunakucapukiswa, alutelekeleli ububi

luyanyamezela izinto zonke, luyakolwa zizinto zonke, luyatemba izinto zonke, lunomonde ezintweni zonke.

aluvuyeli okungalungileyo, kodwa luyavuya kunye nayo inyaniso

Kodwa kaloku nje kuhleli ukolo, itemba, utando, ezizinto zontatu; kanti eyona inkulu pakati kwezi lutando.

Utando alutshitshi napakade: kodwa nokuba ziziprofitesho, ziya kutshabalala; nokuba zinteto, ziya kupela; nokuba kukwazi, kuya kutshabalala.

NAKUBA nditeta ngenteto zabantu nezengelosi, kodwa ndingenalo utando, sendiyixina ehlokomayo, umhlaumbi yisimbali ekencezayo.

Kanjalo nakuba ndinesipiwo sokuprofitesha, ndiqonda nemfihlakalo zonke, nako konke ukwazi; ewe nakuba ndinalo lwonke ukolo, ndide ndizishenxise intaba, kodwa ndingenalo utando, ndiyinto enganto.

Kanjalo nakuba ndiyaba yonke impahla yam ngokufunzela amahlwempu, ewe nakuba ndiwunikela umzimba wam ukuze nditshiswe, kodwa ndingenalo utando, andincedwa luto.

Xeshekweni ndibe ndingumntwana, ndanditeta njengomntwana, ndandikumbula njengomntwana, ndanditelekelela njengomntwana; kodwa ngoku sendiyindoda nje, ndizibekile nxamnye izinto zobuntwana.
