‘Nitum ngei lou Zion khopi,
Ngai in ka mau kakap sun nichin in;
Tatsa te leng uh silhpuan piandang toh,
Kei din zong mun om hiam tua gan nuam ah?’

Ngaina veng e,Ngaina veng e,
A mun thupi nibang lun lai sang in,
Anbang hon it I Topa mellawm nou,
Mu nuam veng albang dah kaban na din.

Lung deih Hondampa lenna mun,
Tuang tunlouh ding lung lau veng Mang Jesu;
Sisan in hon silin laukha in hon huai in,
Mang nunneem gam pen mah ngaina veng e.

Agam etlawm dan gen seng louh,
Sisan in a hongta zalenna gam;
Ka laukha tua gamnuam gal don jel in,
Simlei pallun loubang hong tul ding hi.
