1. Junxil chaq saʼ xtenamit
Laj David, li rey najter
Jun naʼbʼej ut xkʼuulaʼal
Keʼhilan rikʼin karneer.
Li xMaria aʼan kiwan
Joʼ lix naʼ Jesus aran.

2. Kikubʼe chaq saʼ choxa,
Tzʼaqal Dios, aj Kolol qe;
Saʼ xnaʼaj li xul kiwar;
Maajun chʼaat kiwan choqʼ re.
Li nebʼaʼ ut li tuulan—
Saʼ xyanqebʼ kibʼeek aʼan.

3. Xbʼaan ruxtaan ut xbʼaan xrahom
Toj taqil saʼ rosoʼjik,
Ut li tuulanil kʼuulaʼal
Wan choqʼ Dios chi junelik,
Ut naxkʼam ralal xkʼajol
Saʼ xnaʼaj li qakolbʼal.
