Baririmbira Yes’ iyi ndirimbo nshya,
Bat’ icyubahiro cyose kib’ icya Yesu,
Wadukunz’ akatwuhagiz’ amaraso

Abo bose bari bandujwe n’ ibyaha kera,
None bamaby’ imyenda y’ abakijijwe
Bat’ icyubahiro . . . . . . .

Umutambyi w’ Umwami: tumusingize!

Tuba twihebye rwose: twakozwa na nde?
Non’ icyubahiro . . . . . . .

Bibareherez’ ahw ari, baririmbe
