Me ba, yɛ aso ma me nyansa; tie me nhunumu nsɛm no yie, 
sɛdeɛ ɛbɛma woahwɛ yie, na wʼano akora nimdeɛ. 
Ɛfiri sɛ ɔbaa dwamanfoɔ ano sosɔ ɛwoɔ, na ne kasa kɔ yɛɛ sene ngo; 
nanso, awieeɛ no ɛyɛ nwono sene bɔnwoma, ɛyɛ nam sɛ akofena anofanu. 
Ne nan kɔ owuo mu; nʼanammɔntutuo kɔ ɛda mu tee. 
Ɔnnwene ɛkwan a ɛkɔ nkwa mu ho; nʼakwan yɛ kɔntɔnkye, nanso ɔnnim. 
Enti, afei, me mma, montie me; Monntwe mo ho mfiri deɛ meka ho. 
Ɛkwan a ɛmmɛn noɔ no na momfa so mommmɛn ne fie ɛpono ano, 
anyɛ saa a, mode mo ahoɔden bɛma afoforɔ na mode mo mfeɛ ama otirimuɔdenfoɔ, 
anyɛ saa a, ahɔhoɔ bɛfom mo ahonyadeɛ na mobrɛ de ahonya akɔ afoforɔ fie. 
Mo nkwanna akyi, mobɛsi apinie ɛberɛ a mo honam ne mo onipadua asa no. 
Na moaka sɛ, “Na mekyiri ahohyɛsoɔ! Mʼakoma ampɛ ntenesoɔ! 
Manyɛ ɔsetie amma mʼakyerɛkyerɛfoɔ na mantie mʼakwankyerɛfoɔ asɛm. 
Maduru ɔsɛeɛ ntɛntɛnoa wɔ asafo no nyinaa mu.” 
Nom nsuo firi wʼankasa ankorɛ mu, nsuo a ɛtene firi wʼankasa abura mu. 
Ɛsɛ sɛ wo nsutire yiri fa mmɔntene so na wo nsuwa kokɔ ɔman adwaberem anaa? 
Ma ɛnyɛ wo nko ara dea, a wone ahɔhoɔ nnkyɛ da. 
Nhyira nka wʼasubura na wʼani nka wʼababunuberɛ mu yere ho. 
Ɔte sɛ ɔtwe bereɛ dɔfoɔ, ɔwansane animuonyamfoɔ. Ma ne nufoɔ nsɔ wʼani daa na ne dɔ nkyekyere wo. 
Me ba, adɛn enti na woma ɔbaa dwamanfoɔ kyekyere wo? Adɛn enti na woda ɔbarima foforɔ bi yere kokom? 
Awurade hunu onipa akwan nyinaa, na ɔhwehwɛ ne nyinaa mu. 
Omumuyɛfoɔ nnebɔne sum no afidie; na ne bɔne nhoma kyekyere no papee. 
Ɔbɛwu ɛsiane ahohyɛsoɔ a ɔnni enti, na wayera ɛsiane nʼagyegyentwisɛm enti.
