Sabuurradii 126

1 Markii Rabbigu soo celiyey maxaabiistii Siyoon, Waxaynu noqonnay sida kuwa riyooda.

A song of ascents. When the Lord turned the fortunes of Zion, we were like dreamers.

2 Markaasaa afkeenna waxaa ka buuxsamay qosol, Carrabkeennana gabay, Kolkaasaa quruumaha waxaa laga dhex yidhi, Rabbigu waxyaalo waaweyn ayuu iyaga u sameeyey.

Then was our mouth filled with laughter, our tongue with glad shouts; then among the nations they said, “The Lord has dealt greatly with them.”

3 Rabbigu wuxuu inoo sameeyey waxyaalo waaweyn, Oo aynu ku faraxsan nahay.

The Lord had dealt greatly with us, and we were rejoicing.

4 Rabbiyow, maxaabiisnimada mar kale nooga soo celi Sida durdurrada koonfureed.

Turn our fortunes, O Lord, as the streams in the Negreb.

5 Kuwa ilmada wax ku abuurtaa, farxad bay ku goosan doonaan.

They who sow in tears shall reap with glad shouts.

6 Kii iska taga isagoo ooyaya oo abuurkiisa sita, Wuxuu soo noqon doonaa isagoo faraxsan oo xidhmooyinkiisa sita.

Forth they fare, with their burden of seed, and they weep as they go. But home, home, with glad shouts they shall come with their arms full of sheaves.
