Jua ni moto
Tena ni mwangaza ya dunia
Jua, maji, mwezi, nyota, upepo na
udongo
Ni uzima wa binadamu
Nadina yooo Nadina yoyo

Tuombe mungu baba yoyo
Atuhurumie dhambi zetu mama
Hata uko mwenye dhambi rudisha

Hata we ni wa shetani jua yuu

Tumsifu mungu baba ee ee
Hata mara moja ujuma
Hata uko mwenye dhambi rudisha

Hata we ni wa shetani jua yuu
