הִנְנִי מוּכָן וּמְזוּמָּן \ מוּכָנָה וּמְזַמֶּנֶת \ מוּכָנֶה וּמְזוּמָּנֶת
לְקַיֵּם מִצְוַת הַכָּרָת רִבּוֹנוּת הָאָרֶץ לְשֵׁם יִחוּד

Hinneni (Masc:) muchan um’zuman (Fem:) muchana um’zamenet (NB:) muchaneh u-m’zumanet
lekayem mitzvat ha-karat ribonut ha-aretz le-shem yichud. 

Here I am, ready to fulfill the mitzvah of acknowledging the sovereignty of the land, for the sake of unification.* 

This seder is taking place on stolen land. The land we are gathering upon is the ancestral home of the ______________ people(s) who have been displaced by settler colonialism. The first slaves in these so-called United States were indigenous people, and a disproportionate number of their descendents are enslaved in prisons today. As Jews, we have also suffered from displacement and know its bitterness. We acknowledge the ways in which we, as non-indigenous people in this land, have benefited from colonialism and the oppression of indigenous peoples. We ask for their forgiveness and for the honor of fighting alongside them for the land they love, and pray that Hashem “will plant them on their land, so they will no longer be removed from the land Hashem has given them.” (Amos 9:15)
