1 “Maccasape yeletida asas laythi qanthi;
ika qassi meton kumis.
2 Ciishshada bentidi ellesidi qoqofetees;
kuyada gam7onna eeson aadhees.
3 Yaatin, neeni hessa mela asi kaallayee?
pirdas ne sinthe shiishayee?
4 Tunabaape geeshshaba kessanaw danda7ey oonee?
Oonika baawa.
5 Asi daana laythas zawi de7ees;
I daana ageena neeni tayba wothadasa;
neeni wothida zawape aadhey oonika baawa.
6 Une oothiya asi ba oosuwa polidi shempeysada,
I shempana mela ne ayfiya iyape denthada iya aggaaga.
7 Qanxetida mithas ufaysi de7ees;
zaaridi aacees;
ooratha tashe kessidi diccees.
8 Mithaa xaphoy biitta garsan cimikoka,
durumay biittan wooqikoka,
9 haathe demmidi aacees;
ooratha dolada tashe kessees.
10 Shin asi hayqees; hessi iyaw wursethi;
iya shempoy keyape guye I awun de7ii?
11 Abbaa haathi meleysada,
shaafa haathi wureysada,
12 hessada asika hayqees; simmidi dendenna;
saloti aadhana gakanaw asi baarkenna;
ba dhiskuwafeka dendenna.
13 Neeni tana duufon genthidaako aybe!
Ne hanqoy aadhana gakanaw qottidaako aybe!
Ne taw qamida he gallas tana hassaydaako aybe!
14 Asi hayqiko simmidi de7on daanee?
Ta shempiya wodey yaana gakanaw,
ha meto wode ubbaa danda7an naagana.
15 He wode ne tana xeegana taka koyana;
ne medhida tana be7anaw laamotiya wodey yaana.
16 He wode neeni tuma ta tanguwa wochana;
shin ta nagaraa kaallaka.
17 Ta balay ogoron yiicetana;
ta nagaraa neeni kammana.
18 Zumi woddeysada,
zaalli dhoqalleteysada,
19 haathi shucha xapho bookeysada,
di7oy biitta meeccidi efeysada,
neeni asa ufaysi dhaysaasa.
20 Neeni iya merinaw xoonasa; I simmenna;
iya malaa laammada ne sinthafe diggaasa.
21 Iya nayti bonchetiko I erenna;
enti kawuyiko I be7enna.
22 Shin iya asatethaa seelay iya xalaalas si7etees;
I ba xalaalas yeekees” yaagis.
