Mba mangataka (Herizo Ravonjison Andrianitsiahy)

Mba mangataka azafady,
Mangataka miangavy.
Fa efa omaly no tsy omana,
Tena efa kely ny aina!
.
Mangataka fa tsy manana,
Na fitafy na sakafo,
Na hantra na fitiavana.
Omeo fa malahelo!
.
Mangataka am-panajana,
Izay ampy re zaraina,
Sanatria ny hoe manery,
Omeo fa hanaovanay tsianjery!
.
Tsy mitavandra izay lafo,
Fa mangataka raha mety,
Hividiana fitafy sy sakafo,
Entinay manao fety!
.
Tsy misy tsy maninona,
Izahay koa mahay mionona.
Ampy hiatrehanay ny fety,
Ny tsikitsiky omena anay!
.
