hajy Andriamanitra fitiavana
Ianao no he nampiray
ary koa nampihavana
ireto havan-tianay.

Nefa ny fiainana tsy mora
Sarotra koa ’zany dia
koa gqyls ampio ireo tanora
mba haharitra ho doria.

Raha sendra fifaliana
aza avela ho variana
raha tojo fahoriana
tsy ho diso fanampiana.

Raha sendra ka mivena
fa hoe resim-pahalemena,
dia omeo fahendrena
mba ecpk hahay manarin-tena.

Tahio e ! Tahio Zanahary !
na finaritra ireo na marary,
arovy ireo hatrany hatrany
fa malama anie ny tany !!!
