Mukiza Yesu, ntabara

Mukiza Yesu, ntabara,

Kukw abantu babiri

Bari mu mutima wanjye,

Umw’ akund’und’agoma

Umwe ni we Mwuka wawe

Unyiringiz’ijuru;

Und’ahor anyoshya nabi,

Ashaka kunshumuza

Mwami, sinkor’ ibyo nkunda,

Nubgo mpora mbyifuza

Ibibi byo ndabikora,

Nubg’iteka njya mbyanga

Murokoz’ umucyo wawe

Umurikire neza,

Ngo wa muntu mubi nanga

Atamperana rwose

Iyo nirwanya ntyo, Mwami,

Nta mahoro mba mfite

Ndagukunda, ndagushaka !

Mfasha, nesh’ uwo mubi!

Kiz’ imbata yaw’ irushywa,

Ihor’ ikuganyira;

Umpe n’ ububasha bgawe

Ngo njye nsinda Satani

Ndashak’ uburuhukiro

Mu bgami bgawe bgiza;

Mfasha ngo wa wundi nanga

Atambuza kujyayo
