Gbat’ oju mi ba se peki

1. Gbat’ oju mi ba se peki
‘Mole to se n’ ila orun,

Ase anu re s’ ori mi,
K’o le iji ebi kuro
K’o so okun mi d’ imole.
2. Gba m’ ba ebo owuro
Wa siwaju Oba orun,
Ti mo nsofo itiju mi,
Ti mo mbe l’ oruko Jesu;
Olugbala fie je Re

3. ‘Gbati ise ojo pari,
Ti ara are fe ‘simi,
F’ idariji anu bukun,
Si so mi nigba m’ba simi;
B’ orun ojo keji tin ran
Ma sin mi lo lona orun.
4. Gbat’ orun aiye mi ba wo,
T’ ija at’ ise mi d’ opin,

S’ ori akete iku mi,
K’ O ji mi lat’ okun iku,
Lati ri o kin le yin O.
