1. Shanda, rosvikarima,
Kusvika kwayedza.
Shanda ropenya dova
Romumaruva.
Shanda kune chiyedza,
Zuva richipenya,
Shanda, rosvika rima,
Basa ropera.
2. Shanda rosvika rima,
Napamasikati.
Shanda nomuchiyedza,
Uchazorora,
Shandisa nguva yose,
Uve nemugove.
Shanda rosvika rima,
Pasisashandwe.
3. Shandira Tenzi wako,
Kana uchafema,
Ropa rakakutenga
Kubva kurufu.
Shanda nyika yotukwa,
Ichiri muzvivi.
Shandira Ishe wako,
Kudzora vamwe.
4. Shanda rosvika rima,
Zuva richidoka;
Ropenya segoridhe
Kumavirira.
Shanda rukunzvi kunzvi;
Zuva richinyura.
Shanda rosvika rima,
Basa ropera.
