Ni twe Ntama zawe, Mwami Yesu,
Utuyobor’ inzira !
Uturind’ ibyago n’ amakuba,
Udukure mu byaha !

Mutabazi, twumvire ! } x 2

Nubgo dukiranirwa.

Kand’ uhimbazwe, Yesu
No kubg’ imbabazi zawe

No kubg’ imbaraga zawe

Mu mategeko yawe;
Nuko kubg’ ibyo, dushaka

Mukiza, Mwungeri mwiza
Turagukurikira
Utugwiriz’ imbaraga
Kand’ ujy’ uturamira
