Kulemba ndiko kupita
pomwe zowoneka zimayima.    
 
Kulemba
zadzaza
osadziwa kumene tikupita.       
 
Ziyenera kukhala
pamaso pa khoma lalikulu la miyala youma
malo a njoka
ndi chuma chosakanikirana.     
 
Ndi kukafika padoko
atatha kuyendayenda
kuchokera kumtunda kupita kumtunda
kutali ndi mikuntho
ndi zina zokwanira.      
 
Sizoyenera kukhala pamenepo
pamene tikukuyembekezerani
chala pa msoko
woyima pang'onopang'ono
kuchokera ku zotsatira za reflux.      
 
ndi kukhala ndi moyo
mopepuka
kutsamira pa mtima wake.      
 
ndinu ofooka kwambiri
mudzapereka
pakufunika kwanu kokwezeka,   
danga ili
kumene kupuma kukwera kwakukulu
mu dzuwa la maganizo.      
 
Kulemba
sichiyenera kukhalaponso.      
 
Kulemba
chikhale chibonga
pa nyanja ya zokwiyitsa
kumva ndi zala zake zonse
ming'alu ya zinyalala
zizindikiro zochenjeza
kusalala kwa mzimu.      
 
Kulemba
ilinso,
kokha,   
kuwoloka pakhomo la nyumba yake
pachabe.      
 
Kulemba
ndi kufunafuna zomwe tazipeza kale,    
chitsiru chakumudzi
pofunafuna mafotoni a kuwala.
