1. Bʼichanbʼil resil Sion,
Xtenamit Enok junxil
Bʼar rochbʼeen li Dios keʼbʼeek
Li tiik xchʼool saʼ tzʼaqalil.
Chaabʼilal, paabʼaal, rahok
Joʼ maatan chaq keʼtawman;
Li junjunq naxra xkomon;
Junajebʼ chaq xchʼool aran.
2. Lix wankil laj tza keʼxtzʼeq;
Choxahil chaqʼrabʼ keʼxpaabʼ.
Saʼ xnaʼaj Eden najter,
Li Sion chik keʼxxaqabʼ.
Qʼaxbʼil ru maaʼusilal;
Bʼihomal inkʼaʼ raabʼil,
Ut rajlal li usilal
Saʼ tuqtuukilal keʼril.
3. Nalembʼak xkabʼlal Sion,
Joʼ saqʼe lix lemtzʼunkil;
Ebʼ laj maak saʼ xiw keʼwan;
Chi sachso chaq xchʼool keʼril.
Naq keʼtzʼaqlok ru xpaabʼaal,
Keʼxtaaqe lix nimla Rey.
Keʼkʼameʼ toj saʼ choxa;
“Elenaq Sion,” keʼxye.
4. Naq rochbʼeen Sion taachalq
Li Qaawaʼ chi xkabʼ sutil,
Junajaq qachʼool chi yaal
Ut rikʼin li qu taqil.
Li anjel qochbʼeen teʼbʼeeq,
Li Qaawaʼ toxkʼul chiru;
Chanchanaq Eden li chʼochʼ;
Toonawoq joʼ nawbʼil qu.
