Here is the quotation in isiXhosa followed by the English translation and the chords:

"O Thixo, ndikokele,
Ndikusele, ndenze ndibe
Isibane, esi bengezelayo Enkwenkwezi
eqaqanbileyo
Ungu somandla isobu gangamsha"

"O God, guide me, protect me, make of me a shining lamp and a brilliant star. Thou art the Mighty and the Powerful."
