1 Bayajaja abantwanyana
Abamthanday'uJesu oyiMvana;
Bayesaba ukuxabana,
Behlalisana ngokumandi nje.
2 Babusiswa labobantwana,
Abamfunay'uJesu,bemfumana,
Abahlala ngokuthandana,
Imhlophe inhliziyo ithi qhwa.
3 Nay'uJesu wayengumntwana,
Waphan'uThixo ngayo iNdodana;
Ukub'asuse ukuzondana,
Ngokusifela kwakh'eGolgotha.
4Uzithwala izimvanyana,
Zingakhathali,zingabi-kudana
Ngom'sa wakhe zizohlangana
Nomhlambi wakh'om khulu khona le.
