Sabuurradii 123

1 Kaaga samooyinka dhex fadhiyow, Adigaan indhahayga kor kuugu taagaa.

A Song of the going up. To you my eyes are lifted up, even to you whose seat is in the heavens.

2 Bal eeg, sida ay indhaha addoommadu u fiiriyaan gacanta sayidkooda, Iyo sida ay gabadh indhaheedu u fiiriyaan gacanta sayidaddeeda Ayay indhahayagu u fiiriyaan Rabbiga Ilaahayaga ah, Ilaa uu noo naxariisto.

See! as the eyes of servants are turned to the hands of their masters, and the eyes of a servant-girl to her owner, so our eyes are waiting for the Lord our God, till he has mercy on us.

3 Rabbiyow, noo naxariiso, annaga noo naxariiso, Waayo, waxaa aad nooga buuxda quudhsasho.

Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: for all men are looking down on us.

4 Naftayadii waxaa aad uga batay Qosolka kuwa istareexsan Iyo quudhsashadii kuwa kibirsan.

For long enough have men of pride made sport of our soul.
