Janawari 31 San Giovanni Bosco. Umkhuleko kosanta ukuze uthole usizo

O San Giovanni Bosco, ngenkathi ukulelomhlaba,
kwakungekho muntu ongakuthandanga,
ngaphandle kokwamukelwa ngomusa, ukududuzwa nokusizwa nguwe.
Manje ezulwini lapho uthando lusenziwa luphelele,
oh inhliziyo yakho enkulu kufanele ivutha kanjani uthando lubhekise kwabasweleyo!
Bheka kahle isidingo sami samanje futhi ungisize
ukungithola kwiNkosi (biza lokho okufunayo).
Nawe uke wabhekana nobunzima, izifo,
ukungqubuzana, ukungaqiniseki ngekusasa, ukungabongi,
izingxabano, ukunyundela, ukushushiswa ...
futhi uyazi ukuthi kuyini ukuhlupheka ...
Deh!, Ngakho-ke, oNgcwele uJohn Bosco, ngiphendukele ngomusa
ubuke futhi uthole kuNkulunkulu engikucelayo,
uma kuwusizo emphefumulweni wami; uma kungenjalo, ngitholele okuthile
omunye umusa ongisize kakhulu,
kanye nokuvumelana okuyintando nentando yaphezulu ezintweni zonke,
kanye nokuphila okuhle nokufa okungcwele. Ngakho makube njalo.
