Original
众人熙熙，如享太牢，如春登台。我独泊兮其未兆，如婴儿之未孩；累累兮若无所归。
众人皆有余，而我独若遗。我愚人之心也哉！沌沌兮！
俗人昭昭，我独昏昏。俗人察察，我独闷闷。澹兮其若海，飂兮若无止。
众人皆有以，而我独顽且鄙。我独异于人，而贵食母。

Jo duka weko, wecere nyo iye, kulu weka ciigini, wecere nyo iye, iwe kulu pa tara. Ani, eka kulu luluku, ki calu ci.
Jo duka en gi maber, ane ramba adieri ki. Ane adieri mwer!
Jo duka ilo, ane kulu iye. Jo duka kelo, ane kulu iye. Ngere ka tikri iye! Kulu ki ramba.
Jo duka en gi iye, ane ramba ki. Ani wia kulu iti ma jo, ni iye wek.
