15365. Kure Kumusha

1 A kurekure kumusha?
Ndabvunza murindi, ati,
Usiku hurikupera,
kwakuda kuyedza.
Usacheme, kurumidza,
Mutewere kusimbira;
Muchasvika mukupenya
hakuna kupera.

2 Ndabvunza kune mukani,
anerwiyo rwekushinga,
Ngekushinga ndinokana,
Hondo ichapera.
Musacheme, mutiwire,
dakara basa rapera;
Tinooziwa tinechipo,
Kuti takurira.

3 Ndabvunzazve pasi, zuva,
Zvese zvakandipindura;
Nguva irikundopera,
Jesu anouya.
Musacheme, zviwonisozve
zviri kutinyewera,
Zvisikwa zvese zvinoda
Tsuri imborira.

4 Tiripatyo nekumusha,
Kunofadza kutondera;
Chifarai imwi vafambi,
Bvisanyiwo kutya.
Musacheme, tisangane
apo kusina kuneta,
Zviyedzo’zvo zvakapera,
Tasvika kumusha.
