Harihw’ icyo nkwaka Mwami, Nubwo mpora ngucumuraho, Unyejeshe, unyejeshe! Amazi cyangw’ umuriro.

Nuntunganiriz’ ubwenge, Nzanezerwa nzagusingiza; Arik’ umutima wera, Urutaho, urutaho.

Ninezw’ umutima wanjye, Ni ho nzunguk’ ubwenge bwose, Mbubwirijwe nawe Mwami, Bwo mw’ ijuru, bwo mw’ ijuru.

Njya nirind’ ibicumuro, Nkitonder’ ibyo ntekereza. Mwami n’ ibyo nkora byose, Ntabwo nera, Ntabwo nera.
Gusubiramo
Mpanagurwe hose Mwami!
N’ umuriro nib’ ushaka.
Nkir’ ibyaha, birimburwe.
Nkir’ ibyaha, birimburwe.
