Bazany’ amaturo yabo, Kuyatur’ Umwami Yesu,
Kuko bari bamukunze, Maze barayamutura.
Iyo neza n’ urukundo, Byafashij’ umukene,
N’ amaturo yose batuye, Yar’ ay’ agaciro.
Muture Yes’ amaturo, Biramunezeza rwose,
Muhay’ umutima wanjye, Ndamwiyeguriye.

Umukene yar’ ahagaze, Kure y’ abaturaga,
Maz’ abony’ uburyo batura, Agir’ umunezero.
Yuzurwa n’ ibyishimo, By’ ayo maturo batuye,
We, yar’ afit’ ituro rito, Imbere y’ Umwami.

Abwiran’ Umwam’ agahinda, Ati: Nz’ ineza yawe,
Akir’ iri turo ngutuye, Niryo mutima wanjye,
Yes’ asubiza yitonze, Ati: S’ ituro rito,
Nubw’ abandi batuye menshi, Urabarengeje.
