Mwami Yesu, ndagukunda

Mwami Yesu, ndagukunda,

Ndakwihaye by’ ukuri

Urukundo rwawe rwinshi

Ni rwo rubinyemeza

Sinkibabazwa n’ amakuba

Yose nterwa n’ iby’ iyi si,

Kuko mbyemereye

kubwawe Kugira ngo ngushimishe

Mwami, ngwin’umpishurire

Ibyiza wankoreye

Nubwo nizeye buhoro,

Ngeza ku Musaraba !

Nyigish’uko

wankunze, Yesu,

Nkiri mubi bikabije,

Ngo nitegerez’ igiciro

Kimpesha kubabarirwa

Ndushijeho kugukunda,

Ndushaho kunezerwa;

Ar’ aheza cyangw’ ahabi,

Nta bgo mbur’amahoro

Ariko, Yesu, ntagufite,

Nta mahoro nsigaranye;

Iby’ iyi si, nubw’ ari byiza,

Nta cyo byamarira rwose
