TORIKOKI NANU

Yesu Olaitajeunoni torikoki nanu
Ntalang’aki enkishui osiuo le naiposha
Enang’unye ilopir lemeibala tedukuya nanu,
Endapdapoi enkisudori olturrur ong’ogong losinkir
Iyie eing’uaa eutaaroto onkitayiolounot
Yesu, Olaitajeunoni torikoki nanu.
Anaa enaitigir ng’otonye enkerai,
Ai mitigir iyie enkikurrukur enaiposha sapuk;
Kianyit iyie endarala olopir lenkare,
Enkitoria eng’ing’asia enaiposha,
Yesu olaiteunoni torikoki.
Ore tesiadi nanyikaki embata enaiposha
Neigirigiro ilagilak lenkitureisho,
Intoipoki tenkiyeng’iyeng eseriani,
Ore eton airrang tolgoo lino,
Nchoo aning oltoilo lino ajoki,
“Miureishoyu amu kaarik nanu iyie.”NNK 83.1
