Chi akʼil xikaqo

Lyrics

1. 1. Chi akʼil xikaqo,
   Saʼ qabʼe chik yoʼo
   Li chihabʼ chikʼulunq,
   Mooxaqliik toj reetal li Qaawaʼ taakʼutunq.
   Li rajom xchʼool Aʼan
   Uxbʼilaq raj qabʼaan.
   Li maatan kʼeebʼil qe
   Saʼ rahok ut kuyuk chi usaak chiqakʼe,
   Saʼ rahok ut kuyuk chi usaak chiqakʼe.
2. 2. Joʼ jun matkʼ kʼutbʼil qe,
   Joʼ roq haʼ saʼ lix bʼe
   Naxik qayuʼam;
   Li hoonal aj elel maajoʼqʼe taqaram.
   Li tzimaj ak xkuteʼ.
   Li kʼamok ak xnumeʼ.
   Ak xkʼutun chaq aran
   Lix qʼehil li Qaawaʼ: junelik qʼe kutan.
   Lix qʼehil li Qaawaʼ: junelik qʼe kutan.
3. 3. Naq Aʼan taakʼulunq,
   Chixyehaq li junjunq:
   “Xinyal chaq inqʼe,
   Ak xinchoy li kʼanjel li xakʼe chaq choqʼ we.
   Ut rehaq li junjunq
   Li raatin chikʼulunq:
   “Tzʼaqal us xabʼaanu;
   Saʼ wochoch chik okan, ut hilan chaq chiwu.
   Saʼ wochoch chik okan, ut hilan chaq chiwu.”
