Nzabana n’ Umwam’ ibihe bidashira, Iryo jambo rivuga ngo: Nzatur’ ibudapfa, N’ ubwo nkingiranywe mur’ uyu mubiri, Buzacya negereje gutah’ iwacu heza.

Mu rugo rw’ Umwami ndahararikira, Kwizera ni ko kunyerek’ amarembo yaho, N’ ubwo njya ncogora s’ ukutahashaka, Iyo gakondo y’ abera ni Yerusalemu.

Njya ngotwa n’ ibyaha, Nkumva ndacogoye, Nka bur’ aho mfata nka ya numa yo mu nkuge, Ibicu byeyutse, Umukororombya, W’ ihumure urasira mu mutima wanjye.

Nkund’ izo ndirimbo zihora mw’ ijuru, Izo mw’ isi yacu ni nk’ indimi z’ i Babeli, Harihw’ icyo nkunda, Nukw’ abazazuka, Bazongera kubana na Yesu, Yee, Amina.

Iwacu, Iwacu, Ngeze hafi yaho.
