Inkomangiro yawe yafata, Umuraba w’ ibyag’ uguteye?
Ukagukanagira nk’ ingoyi, Inkomangirq yaw’ izashikama?
Dufit’ inkomangir’ itsika, Imiraba yiyungikanya,
Ikomangiye ku Rutare, Rushikamye, Umukiza wacu.

Nib’ itsitse ntizateraganwa, Ifashwe n’ ukuboko k’ Umwarnl,
Imirunga ye iraduhuza, Bitewe n’ imbaraga y’ ikomeye.

Izashikama mu gihe kibi, Ubw imivumb’ izab’ ihurura,
Umuyaga w’ ishuher’ usheze, Ntabwo bizarenga ku bwato
4
Ndetse no mu gihe kibi cyane, Twifuz’ amazi yaduhembura,
Tuzatsika ku nkombe z’ijuru, Umugar’ ushire buheriheri.
5
Ubw’ igitondo kizatangaza, N’ amarembo arabagirana,
Tuzatsika ku nkombe z ijuru, Umugar’ ushire buheriheri.
