Anikingiaye mabaya ndani.
Dunia haina makimbilio
Nisposhindwa na makosa yangu
Sipo sipo hapa sipo
Mbinguni ni ngome ya raha yangu.
Iache dunia ione kombe
Unapofurahishwa moyo wapi
Ni yerusalemu pazuri inapojengwa
Na mawe mazuri ya dhahabu
Ndipo ndipo, ndipo ngome
ya makimbilio ya moyo wangu
Angani mwa Yesu ni raha ajabu
Hakuna makosa na shida Huko
Vinubi sauti na nyimbo nzuri
Raha raha raha tamu
Mbinguni kwa Yesu naitamani
