Adada nati niwele
Mwanalume uyu wakunitoza

Mwanakazi mbulutu
Kwene munyumba nkhupyera
Ndine mwanakazi yayi
Kwene bana nkhubaba
Adada nati niwele
Niza mlima kukaya
Adada nati niwele
Mwanalume wanisuzgha
Ndeke zinai baliwiska
Ndine mwanakazi yayi
Ine bana nkhulela
Ndine mwanakazi yayi
Nabapa bana bankhondi
Ndine mwanakazi yayi

Adada nati niwele
Niza mlima kukaya
Adada nati niwele

Namwana winu natambula

Nakupantha comene

Bakumala bufu panyumba
Bakumala makopara
Bangizanga panyumba yayi

Vimwemwe panyumba palije
Namwana winu thupi lamangika
Nyifwa yindanunkhe
Adada nati niwele
Nizamulima kukaya
