You should write them in separate insert commands.

SQL

Insert into XYZ(a,b) Values ('x','y')
Insert into XYZ(a,b) Values ('x','y')
Insert into XYZ(a,b) Values ('x','y')
Insert into XYZ(a,b) Values ('x','y')

And if source data is located in a table use insert into TARGETTABLE(FIELD1, FIELD2, ... ) select FIELD1, FIELD2, ... from SOURCETABLE command .

Hope it helps.
