ubuso   
 ekuthinteni kwezinhliziyo zethu   
 eduze kwesihlahla somlotha    
 ngaphandle kokuthinta noma izwi     
 ukubuka okuphezulu      
 Izibalo ezilindile   
 Ezithombeni   
 sina futhi idabukile   
 ukugxuma usuka phezulu kwesihlahla     
 i-hummingbird yomlilo   
 i-passacaglia yezinkungu     
 ekhombisa imithambo ngesandla esisodwa      
 ukucacisa kusihlwa ngokukhanya kwekhandlela   
 amaphepha kamazisi aphuzi   
 ukuthi umoya uyahlakaza   
 phambi kwamehlo ethu angalali.   

 O ubuso   
 ubuso obuyingqayizivele besikhathi esidlulayo   
 usana olumangele     
 yiba yimvunulo yezinyembezi zethu   
 i usawoti womhlangano wethu   
 kusukela endukuni kuya kukhakhasi   
 kusukela kuJobe kuya kumpunga     
 ukububula   
 phambi kobulongwe   
 ukuxuba namatshe e-basalt   
 ingxube ekhazimulayo   
 I-creeper yaseVirginia   
 kanye nodonga olubomvu   
 awu ubuso   
 ukuthi ukuswelakala komoya kuyasula   
 itshe eliyisicaba elibekwe ekuseni  
 odongeni lwengadi
 umoya oxubile   
 ubuso nobuso kuze kube phakade.
