—UPOPE ST JOHN PAUL II, U-Evangelium Vitae, n. I-10
Kwaye ke ndiyakuqinisekisa namhlanje
ukuba andinaxanduva
ngenxa yegazi likabani na kuni;
kuba andikufihlelanga nto, ndinishumayeza

Ngoko hlala uphaphile kwaye ukhumbule
ukuba iminyaka emithathu, ubusuku nemini,
Ndihlala ndikhalimela omnye nomnye kuni
ngeenyembezi.
