Ni Yo ngab’ idukingira
Ayo turi mu makuba,
Ni Y’ ibasha kudukiza

Yishakiy’ uburyo
Bgo kudatsinda,
Ntatubasha na gato,
Kukw’ Iman’ iturengera

Ni twirwanaho twenyine,
Tubura imbaraga rwose
Ariko dufit’ intwari
Ijy’ iturwanira iteka
Iyo ntwari ni nde?

Tuzi yuko, mu byago ,
Ari wow’ uturengera

Guter’ itorero ryawe,
Urarirengera, Mana,
Ntibabashe kuritsinda
Nubw’ Umugambanyi;
Ashaka kutwica,

Kukw’ aneshwa n’ijambo
Ry’ Imana, Ny ir’ i mbaraga

Ridufasha dushobewe
Imbabazi zawe nyinshi Zize,

Twakwamburw’ ibyacu,
Ndetse, tukabohwa,
Ntitwabyitaho :
Byose tuzabinesha;
Tuzaragwa, n’ubgami bwawe !
