Kasach chaq chinbʼeen li maak ut rahilal,
Ut xbʼaan laa Musiqʼ naq ninnaw chi tzʼaqal.
Laaʼat lin saqen; Laaʼat li bʼe, ut li yaal.
Chi qʼeq, chi kutan, Lin bʼe taakʼam rajlal.

Laaʼat lin saqen; Laaʼat li bʼe, ut li yaal.
Chi qʼeq, chi kutan, Lin bʼe taakʼam rajlal.

Laaʼat lin saqen; Laaʼat li bʼe, ut li yaal.
Chi qʼeq, chi kutan, Lin bʼe taakʼam rajlal.
