Kutapira here kwechivabvu,
Patinogocha takakomba choto,
Mwaka vachinja zvino chorova,
Chando-dutu kubva mabvazuva!

Charova nemutoo vakaminama,
Icho chokwidza hamba mumuti!
Makomo mbu-u nechando-chena!
Chinopona chine mudzimu vacho!

Unochiziva iwe ukachiona?
Choita zvekunaya chimvuramabwe,
Mazai echando asina mukare amboona,
Kubuda panze ndekwevakashinga moyo!

Kutaurirwa hunyimwa gore rino,
Vakafa havana chavakaona!
Zvino chatitambisa chepamusoro,
Kusvika amai vevana vaita mapatya!

Mutanda kutorara uchibaka,
Chando zvochobvunza mutupo,
Hameno kukaita chirimo gore rino,
Totenda dzamwa dzaswera nebenzi!

Kana iyo mvura yaoma chando!
Takapedzisira kuona shuramurove rini?
Mhuka kutomirira rorova nhongonya,
Pada inganyunguduka dzikapedza nyota!

Machinjireiko oita nyika kudai?
Kudonda kwayo kuenda kure nezuva?
Chando zvochorova mwedzi mitanhatu!
Gunyana vepi tichigwagwadzwa kudai?

Chorwadza, tozviputira mabhachi,
Dunhu rose zvoromera mazhin’a,
Nzira yekurwizi yamira kupfumbira,
Vana mushambanegore vavanda.

Nyika izere matambudziko,
Asi rugare rwunonaka rwatanga nhamo,
Chirega kukungira hata chisi chako,
Apunyaira haashayi misodzi,
Iye akuti rima uyu ati ugute,
Kuti uwe nerugare rwechokwadi.

Hongu ibongozozo nebopoto,
Paita bishi nemadhunamutuna,
Izvi hazvititadzisi kuva nemuchete,
Chirega kudenha zvakazvigarira,
Wotokunya nguo, rukova rwizi!
Kuti pachedu tive nekuteramira!

Chinotanga rudo nemutsa,
Kubata mabasa akarurama,
Chada moyo chagara hachikoni,
Kuzvidzora nemoyo murefu,
Mufaro nerugare zvotevera,
Ndiko kugadzikana kwepfungwa.

Hushamwari nevamwe hwakadzika,
Patinoteerera zvakadzama nemoyo wese,
Chapinda munzeve chavaridza bonde,
Topindura pasina tsoropodzo,
Rudairo neruremekedzo rwosimbiswa,
Havangaregi kuswedera pedyo nesu!

Upenyu hwenungo irima,
Rugare haruzvikoki senhamo,
Kuti rwushanye kutosunga dzisimbe,
Kana rwasvika zvakare harugarisiki,
Chikuni chagara chinoda mukuchidziri,
Kutomiramira, potse rwopfuurira.

Kana vanyengetera kuna Nyadenga,
Ziva anobatsira anozvibatsira,
Tarenda harichererwi muvhu,
Rinogochwa rakabatwa gumbo,
Kurishandisa kuti riberekane,
Kufadza vadzimu iwe woropafadzwa!

Ndiye Johwani naSafira,
Vakanzwa kutinhira nechekure,
Zvekubhabhatidzana pasi tsve-e,
Vobva Jerusarema kuenda Canaan,
Kumhanyira kwavanzwa Peturo!

Vorondedzera rwavo rwedo,
Rwurefu rwavakafamba netsoka,
Vachibvunza kune vese vavaona,
Kuti zvimwe vangavana shomana,
Inosimudza kwayafira ngoroyemoto!

Muzvinachitoro Judha akati kwete,
Takuranai nayo isvike pano,
Mubairo vezvisakarurama!
Hamuna kuteerera vanaMedia?
Hatitengeseri vane zvigubhu!

Peturo anetsa uyu!
Oshevedzerwa nepanhepenyuro!
Zvino sirivha nendarama hatina,
Kutosimbisa zvakare tsoka,
Asi hatineti kupembedza madzishe!

Tendeukai! Mudzoke kwamabva!
Tsvagai marata murove sando,
Kugadzira migomo nemadhishi,
Mozonotengesera zvenyu Ijipita,
Imomo makare muHighfields!

Musarera dambudzo,
Rinodzoka rokutambudzai,
Ragara iro pachigaro,
Imi moita varanda!

Ritsvagirei nyaya,
Musangano uriparadze,
Musavarairwe naro,
Dambudzo richakutongai.

Kunyanya imi wechidiki,
Vasingazivi chinonzi hondo,
Zvigadzirisei iye zvino,
Ripere pachine nguva!

Edzai napose pamunogona,
Kurizviringidza-zviringidza,
Pada moripa muchetura,
Zvimwe ringaita kafiramberi!

Zvino ravane mwedzi misere,
Rikaera radzika midzi,
Kuribvisa ichava mhirizhonga,
Nhamo yanamira pane imwe!

Iwe neni,
Sezvose zvakanaka,
Zvinouya zvakabatana,
Nyevhe nedovi,
Bhande nebhurugwa,
Mari nedumbu,
Chingwa nemajarini,
Solo naMutsai,
Iwe neni!

Chirenga kurebesa meso,
Womira kurerutsa chiunu,
Ndicho here chimanjemanje?
Chekumhanyidzana netsikombi,
Dzinopfuura sedova mangwanani,
Mombe nedhongi hazvikweverani,
Pfavira ngoma mumwe vangu,
Dzikama rwendo rwurefu,
Hunoda vayanani,
Iwe neni!

Nhasi wave duma,
Kubudikidza neni musimboti,
Asi ndoita sechimhingamupini,
Ndiwe vakwira kumusorosoro,
Une parefu pekudonha,
Woedza kubatira mashizha,
Zvoshaya basa watodonha,
Makore afamba wakwegura,
Kusimuka mabvi zvonetsa,
Usina wako mubatsiri,
Iwe neni!

Ndini chandavinga,
Chandabata ini handiregi,
Nyangwe ako magaramoyo,
Kundidaira nenzwi rine hasha,
Wondidzwokora neziso rinotaura,
Ndongokuchidzira moto wamhova,
Zvimwe pada ungabaka rimi,
Pano ndadzika midzi, handiendi!
Kupi kwekuenda kusina wangu?
Tiri tose mwachewe narini,
Murufaro nematambudziko,
Iwe neni!
