1. 1. Kikam li nimla Kolonel
   Re xtojbʼal jun chaqʼrabʼ qʼetbʼil,
   Ut joʼ mayej choqʼ qe kikam
   Ut joʼ mayej choqʼ qe kikam
   Re naq li winq taawanq xyuʼam.
2. 2. Naq ebʼ laj maak xrahil keʼxhobʼ,
   Li ruqʼ ut xkʼatq lix saʼ keʼxkʼobʼ.
   Keʼxmajewa, ut keʼxseʼe,
   Keʼxmajewa, ut keʼxseʼe,
   Ut saʼ xjolom li kʼix keʼxkʼe.
3. 3. Us ta saʼ krus kʼaʼjoʼ xrahil,
   Maajun wechʼok aran yeebʼil.

   Loqʼlaj kʼanjel kʼulbʼil chaq xbʼaan;
   Rajom xYuwaʼ xbʼaanu aran.
4. 4. “Kʼa saʼ lin sekʼ, at inYuwaʼ,
   Aʼut tinwukʼ saʼ laa kʼabʼaʼ.
   Xinchoy chik lin kʼanjel arin.

   Kʼul inmusiqʼ chaq aawikʼin.”
5. 5. Kikam, ut li saqʼe kiril:

   Xbʼaan naq jun Dios kikam aran.
6. 6. Yoʼyo wiʼchik. Arin naqil

   Taqasikʼ ru rajom Aʼan.
