Chorus:
Jezu, mogachea Agttea,
Jesus, flame of love,
amchim lasum-di kallzam
set our hearts on fire,
Tujea mogachea ujean! *2
in Your fire of love!
Zõi rag-dvês zollta
Where anger burns fiercely,
thõi ami priti vompum!
there may we spread affection!
Zõi opman kortat
Where they offend us,
thõi ami mafi korum!
there we must forgive!
Ch:
Zõi khont dukh bhorlea
Where there is abundance of worry and sorrow,
thõi ami sontôs vaddoum!
may we bring happiness!
Zõi kallok poddla
Where there is darkness,
thõi ami uzvadd fankoum!
may we spread light!
Ch:
