I Gologota, ku Giti

I Gologota, ku Giti,

Ni ho Yesu yabambwe;

Yabambiwe kugira

Ngo tubone kudapfa

Yes’ amaze kunesha,

Avug’ ijwi rirenga,

Abivuga yeruye,

Ati: Birarangiye !

Amaze kuvug’ atyo,

Aherakw arunama,

Yunamishwa n’ibyaha

Byanjye nanze kwihana

Non’ ansabye imbabazi,

Nihane, mukureyo,

Mumanure ku giti,

Aruhuk’ umutima

Abantu batihana

Bongeye kumubamba,

N’ umuruho munini,

Umubabaza iteka

Twari twararuhijwe,

Twiganyira, twihebye,

None turaruhutse:

Yesu ni uburuhukiro

Nukw abishwe n’ ibyaha,

Nimuhunge, mukire

Muze, mubikurwemo:

Yesu n’ uburuhukiro

Mukiza, ndakwihaye

Ni wowe wantaruye

Uko nzaba ndi kose,

Yesu, nzagusingiza
