Mukiza naraguhemukiye,

Ndanakwimura ku mpamvu nkeya,

Utungany’ umutima wanjy’ iby’ ushaka bibe.

N’ ubu ngubu ndacyavuga, Nt’ iby’ ushaka bibe,

Umwuka waw’ utangir’ ubuntu,

Agenderer’ umutima wanjye,

Humuriz’ umutima wanjy’ ibyushaka bibe.

Ubutegeke bub’ uk’ ushaka,

Ndind’ ibimbuza kuvuga, Iby’ ushaka bibe
