Kera ntabwo nagutekerezaga, None nameny’ urukundo rwawe. Kand’ umucyo wawe warandasiye, Nanjye nguhay’ umutima wanjye.

Ubwo nari maze gucik’ intege , Iby’ isi bimaze kuncogoza, Warankomeje ngumya kukwizera; Mwam’ iby’ ushaka byose bibeho.

Nimara kuger’ iwacu mw’ ijuru, Nzahora ndi mu rukundo rwawe. Umutima wanjye ntuzacogora, Ntabwo nzongera kuruh’ ukundi.
Gusubiramo
Mwami numvis’ Ijambo ryawe ryera,
Maze numva rindemy’ umutima;
Ubwo nari ntafit’ ibyiringiro,
Ijambo ryawe riranyobora.
