Nzaririmb’ igitangaza
Yes’ Umwami yakoze;
Ko yavuy’ i We mw ijuru
Ngw amfir’ i Gologota
Nzaririmb’ igitangaza
Yes’ Umwami yakoze:
Ndi kumwe n’ abo mw ijuru
Imbere ya ya ntebe

Nari nzimiye nk’ intama
Maze Yes’ arambona;
Nukw anshyira ku bitugu,
Ansubiza mu nzira
3
Nar’ impumyi, mfit’ ubwoba
Nshits’ intege, mbabaye,
Njanjaguritse, nihebye,
Maze Yes’ arankiza
4
Ndacyabon’ ibimbabaza;
Haracyar’ ibindushya;
Nyamar’ ubgo turi kumwe,
Nzi yuko nta cyo nzaba
5
Azanyuza no mu rupfu,
Nambuke na rwa Ruzi;
Maze, ni mfata hakurya,
Nzasangay’ abo nkunda
