Mana Data wo mw ijuru,
Washyingiriye Adamu
Na Haw’ i Paradiso,
Umaze kubateranya,
Ubaha n’ umugish’ uti:
Mub’ amahoro masa
Muzabyare, —Muzaheke,
Muzagwire, —Mwuzuz’ isi,
Muyitegeke n’ ibyayo

Mujye mwitegeka neza,
Mufashanye, mukundane,
Murengerane mwembi
Mw ihirwe no mu makuba
Mu bworo no mu bukire,
Muzahimbaz’ Imana

Ngo bagume—Kuri Wowe,

Ngo mutahe—Na bwa bukwe
Bw’ Umwana w’ intama, Yesu
