Tata cuta

Tata cuta na cielo
bo nomber ta Santifica
bo Reino ta bin cerca nos,
hasi bo voluntad aki na tera
como tamben na cielo,
dudanos awe e pan di cada dia,
perdonanos e ofensasnan
mane nos perdona e sunan cuta
ofende nos y no laganos cai
den tentacion y libranos di mal
Amen.

Nos Tata, ku ta na shelu,

Anto boso lo pidi asina:

Nos Tata, qu tu na cielu,
qu bo nombre ta santifica;
Laga bo reino bini;
qu bo boluntad sosode na terra,
mescos qu na cielu;
Duna nos awe nos pan di cada dia;
Y pordona nos nos debenan, mescos qu nos tambe ta pordona nos debedonan;
Y no laga nos cai den tentacion,
ma libre nos dje Malu;
(pasoba di Bo ta reino, y poder, y gloria, te na eternidad.)
Amen.
