Nshatse kugukurikira Buri munsi, Mwami Yesu

Mu gihe cy’ umunezero Ndetse no mu mubabaro

Ubwo watubanjirije tuje tugukurikiye

Tuzi rwose k’ uri hafi yo kutugeza mw ijuru

Sinahora mbaririza Urugendo rwawe Yesu,

Cyangwa se ngo nshidikanye Kugukurikira, Yesu

Umurimo wanjye n’ uwo Kugukurikrai Yesu,

No gukomez’ iyo nzira nk’ uko wayimenyesheje

Mu gihe hagiz’ icyaza Kikantesh’ inzira yawe,

Cyangwa kikandemerera Mur’ urwo rugendo mfite,

uzaz’ uc’ uwo mugozi Uzab’ umbeshy’ umutima

Nezezwa no kubohorwa Nkabon’ uko ngukorera

Urandinde, Mwami Yesu, Ntunganiriz’ imigambi

Niba naniw’ u rugendo Uzanyibuts’ urukundo

Uti Ngwino, mwana wanjye, Hasigay’ u mwanya muto,

Kuk’ uzahozw’ ibyo byose Ugez’ iwanjye mw ijuru
