phansi kolimi lwakho,
nephunga lezambatho zakho
linjengephunga laseLebanoni.
12Uyinsimu ehluthulelweyo,
dadewethu, makoti wami,
umthombo ohluthulelweyo
nesiphethu esibekwe uphawu.
13Amahlumela akho ayihlathi lamapomegranati*
anezithelo ezinqabileyo,
ihena* kanye nenadi,*
14inadi* nesafroni,*
nomhlanga nokinamona,*
kanye nemithi yonke yenhlaka,
nemure* nomhlaba,
nawo onke amakha amahle.
15Siphethu sensimu,
mthombo wamanzi aphilayo,
sifufula saseLebanoni!
Ukuphendulana komyeni nomakoti.Umakoti:
16 Vuka, moya wasenyakatho,
uze wena Ningizimu,
uphephethe ensimini yami,
ukuze amakha ayo athaphuke;
othandiweyo wami makangene ensimini yakhe,
adle izithelo zayo ezinqabileyo.
