Xoossaa Maxaafaa—Buquraa

1. Ufayssan saro daana hidootaabaa,

Daro sinttay diyo maxaafay yootees.

An deꞌiya qofaa wolqqay malaaliyaba;

‘Hayqqawu’ deꞌuwa, ‘qooqiyawu’ pooꞌuwa immees.

He maxaafay Xoossaa Geeshsha Maxaafaa.

Bantta Xoossaa keehippe siiqiyo gishshawu,

A ayyaanaa kaalli xaafiisona.

2. Xoossay ubbabaa waati medhdhidaakko,

Meretaabaa tumaa yootiisona.

Guyyeppe Gannatee xayi bayiis.

Issi kiitanchchay Xoossaa eqettoogaa

A haaruwa toochchoogaa yootiisona.

Yaatin asaa nagaray daafan yeggiis,

Shin Yihoowa xoonuwa wodee matattiis.

Qassi markkattoos; yaana anjjuwabaa.

Ha ufayssiyabay A qaalaa giddon dees;

Ubbaassi giigida geeshsha gibray.

An demmiyo saroy qoppanawu metiyabaa;

Ha alꞌꞌo minjjaa ubbay nabbabo.
