Master, Teach us how to pray (in Alur)

The prayer Our Blessed Lord Himself taught His Apostles is the prayer which unites all Christians.  It is a prayer we recite daily and it is the perfect prayer.  In it we adore God our Father, we give thanks for all He has done for us, we confess our sinfulness and we offer supplication.


Here is the Lord's Prayer in Alur, the local dialect spoken in the Nebbi area of the West Nile -
Wegwa ma ni i polo,dong' Nyingi bed leng'
Dong' ker peri bin

Dong' yeny ma cwinyi yenyo utimbre i ng'om calu m'etimbre ko i polo

Tinuni mi iwa kwen mwa ma ku ba rupiny

Wek dub mwa ma wadubo urwiny woko, calu wan de waweko dub ma judubo iwa urwinyo woko

Kud itel wiwa i yoj abidhe

Ento ilarwa re kud i dubo

Kum ker ubedo peri, ku tego de, ku dwong' bende

Ma rondo ku rondo
Amen
