Kera nari mw isayo

Kera nari mw isayo

Y’ ibyaha, ngira ngo

Nd’ uw’ Imana, ndi mwiza;

Nyuma, nsanga nibeshya

Nuko Yes’ ansangamo,

Mbyigaraguramo,

Ati: Mwan’ unyemere,

Ngutabare, ngukize !

Haz’ Umwuka Wer’ ubgo

Mu mutima wanjye,

Mbona ko nacumuye;

Ndihan’ arandokora

Mana, ndagushimira

Yuk’ Umwana wawe

Atandetse ngo nzapfa

Nkiri mu byaha byanjye

Reka njye nkuyoboka;

Nta wundi nifuza

Noneh’ unyiharire;

Mwami Yes’ untegeke

Nahatswe na Satani;

Nta cyiza yampaye;

Amp’ urupfu rw’ iteka ;

Ni kw ahemb’ ingabo ze

Ariko, Mucunguzi,

Wowe wangabiye

Ubugingo ku buntu,

Buva ku Musaraba
