- L.
- Rightly baptized me the Baptist at Jaluz Jaluz,
- whose eyes hamamulai,
- the name of Ksasar hamamulai,
- spoken, equipped, sheltered, safe and pure.
- He knew the nest
- from which he had come.
- Above the sky was his name,
- above the earth was his glory.
- In the treasure was the great life,
- which was full of his glory.
- On a perfect garment I sit,
- and on the great vessel of the Jōkabar.
- The life is under the vine that is above me.
- The praise of life is before me.
- Who will come and tell me?
- I will, for I am great.
- If the life that is under the vine that is above me,
- the praise of life is before me ...
- This is my name and my mark,
- which I have taken from the waves of the waters,
- from the treasures of splendor,
- and from the great, high crater.
- And life is victorious.
