Representative Text

1 Ammas ammas na faarfadhu dubbii jireenyichaa
Anis qoreen ilalaa dubbii jireeny ichaa
Amantii fi jiruunsaa jireenya naaf kennaa.

Buufata:
Dubbii gaarii miidhagaadha dubbii dinqii jireenyaa
Dubbii gaarii miidhagaadha dubbii dinqii gooftaa.

2 Gooftaan keenya nu fayyisa dubbii jireenyichaan
Cubbamoota dammaqaatii dubbiisa hubadhaa
Tola isa nuu kenneera mootummaa isaatti nu galchaa. [Buufata]

3 Wangeelli amma nutti ni hima dubbii jireenyichaa
Nagaasaa kottaa dhaga’aa dubbii jireenyichaa
Yesuus fayyisaa keetii barabaraan arjaadha. [Buufata]
