Manthole nthole ke a robega,
Nthole merwalo ya go nkimela,
Mphumole meokgo ya lenyaga,
Nkiše go Pherekgong,
Ke thome leswa boka moswa,
Ke hlweke ka ntle le ka gare,
Ke imologe dikolotong,
Ke be le khutšo moyeng,
Manthole o kae?
Re nyaka makarapa a boe gae,
Ka gae lesego e be lekekepe,
Go jewe ebile go nwewe,
Go be mothakgalo gohle.
