Vishnu etibila ehi sekari ahi saberu bunana tarohu rituhi adada ehi onatewa.

Titiri, surya, tarare akatawo esatila; titiri adita, tarare akatawo esatila.

 

Selene italare talaho wekina ehi eridaka alakila amuketa itenaha, itawela omfa, itawela nilus, itawela ha itenena irunema, tamuhe esinesi sene naru ehi sekari.

 

Masa newaha talaho hana utawasa imalile litinu naru honani irunesi ehi sandala amukema ehi sekari chanadro, wekona inakusa amelake. Tamonu kakano atelimu du ehi iniride ike nukihe ahanaha talihi, talaho chanadro etamuta asunime ehi wubiha; eha wehinu tekuna talaho ihiniki wukuna alakila abetihu du neture talaho ehi sekari etamuta asunime ehi wubiha, tamuhe minine: walahe baranu esi inakinu ehi utilake chanadro, nema ahe iharita etibila.
