seek out every opportunity to act efficiently,
cherche toute occasion d’agir efficacement,

Banatanga mbebe ya babingi,
tafuta kwa bidii kila nafasi ya kutenda kwa ufanisi,
assim, sua conduta será isenta de reprovação.
yiilo kala feere ngam humtude tigi haajooji,
Fexeel yow saa su ne ngay def na mu gëne

bheka lelo nalelo thuba ngokuthi wenze ngokufanelekileyo,
