Kule minyak’ engaka ngidlal’ ukuhluphek’ emhlabeni | (All these years I’ve been poor)

Uyanginqobela njal’ izitha zami | (He always defeats my enemies)
Ngazula ngazula ngazula | (I searched, and searched, and searched)
Ngamihla le ngifuna le nalena | (Everyday, looking for this and that)

Praise Poem
Ngiza Kuwe Guqabadela kaSomnganisi Chibi elinomqwazi phezulu
Ubizwa yimi uK’lashi lo,
Induna yeyinsizwa ngoba phela nalapha ayikho insizwa eshintsha amagiya ingabonisananga nami
UMvelase waseBathenjini abasenga inkomo izele
UQhudeni kaGuda ongawadli amathibane angadla amathibane ngabe indlala iwile
Mnisi wemvula ilanga libalele, Ngoza kaGabadela
Ngibonga Kuwe Jehovah ngokungihlanganisa nanangu
Umlisa okhanya amasi esiswini ophela eduze ngobude
Awubheke phela namhlanje ubizwa yimi Somnini nanini Simakade wezulu
Wena owakhipha abantwana bakwa Israel esigodini sasegibhithi wababeka ezweni lesethembiso
Umukhulu ke Jehovah wena owabuyisa umfana uLazaru eselusa
Amadada wavuka wazidlela amapholisi umfana
Ngisho Kuwe Kristu Jesu dwala laphakade, wundlu likaNkulunkulu elisusa izoni zonke
Wuwe wedwa umthokozisi wezinhliziyo zethu, umenzi wezimangaliso
Wena owathatha amanzi wawaphendula wawenza iwayini bahlanganisa izandla bakhuza uAmeni bonke abantu
Mana njalo Nginguye uNginguye, mlilo oqothulayo, nsimbi edla ezinye
Ngabe ngiyaqhubeka manje uSimakade akaqedwa
