Nteura para mukuromba, mutenge,

W"adada w"itu imwe muli kuchanya,
zina linu lichindikeke.
Ufumu winu wize,
khumbo linu lichitike
pano pasi nga nkuchanya.
Mutipe lero kurya kwitu kwa zuw"a na zuw"a.
Mutigowokere kwananga kwitu,
nga ndi umo nase tikuw"agowokerera
aw"o w"akutinangira.
Mungatitoreranga mukuyezgeka,
kweni mutitaske kwa muheni.
(Pakuti ufumu ngwinu na nkongono na uchindami, kwa muyirayira.
Ameni.)

Note: (") following a letter means there is a circumflex over that letter.
