Parapanda inalia kule mbinguni
Kululende, kululende

Malaika wanaimbia Bwana
Mara parapanda inalia
Inalia kwa sauti nzuri ya shangwe
Kululende, kululende
Malaika wanaimbia

Jerusalem wanapiga parapanda
Kululende, kululende
Malaika wanaimbia x2

Chorus

Verse 3:
Bwana jeshi wanapiga parapanda
kululende, kululende
Malaika wanaimbia x2

Chorus

Sisi sote tutapiga parapanda

Malaika wanaimbia x2
