Sabuurradii 121

1 Buurahaan indhahayga ku taagi doonaa, Caawimaaddaydu xaggee bay ka iman doontaa?

A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. I look to the hills—but is that where my help comes from?

2 Caawimaaddaydu waxay ka timaadaa Rabbiga sameeyey samada iyo dhulka.

My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

3 Isagu uma oggolaan doono in cagtaada la dhaqaajiyo, Kan ku dhawraa ma gam'i doono.

He will not let you fall; he who watches over you won't fall asleep.

4 Bal eeg, kan reer binu Israa'iil dhawraa Ma gam'i doono, mana seexan doono.

In fact he who watches over you doesn't take naps or fall asleep.

5 Kan ku dhawraa waa Rabbiga, Rabbigu waa hooskaaga midigtaada taagan.

The Lord keeps watch over you; the Lord protects you; he stands right beside you.

6 Qorraxdu maalinta waxba kuma yeeli doonto. Habeenkana dayaxu waxba kuma yeeli doono.

The sun won't hurt you during the day, nor the moon at night.

7 Rabbiga ayaa kaa dhawri doona shar kasta, Isagu wuxuu dhawri doonaa naftaada.

The Lord will protect you from all kinds of evil; he will keep you safe and sound.

8 Hadda intii ka bilaabata iyo tan iyo weligeedba Rabbigu wuxuu dhawri doonaa bixiddaada iyo soo geliddaadaba.

The Lord will look after you when you leave, and when you return, now and forever.
