Ngutuy' ubugingo bwanjye

Ngutuy’ ubugingo bwanjye,

Yesu, Mwana w’ lrnana;

Ubwakire n’ urukundo,

Ngo bub’ ubwaw’ iteka

Nkuzaniy’ ibyaha byanjye

N’ umutim’ unangiwe:

Mu maraso wamviriye,

Unyoze, Mucunguzi

Uz’ uko mpora nirwanya

Ngo nkomez’ umutima;

Uz’ uko nari merewe

N’ ishavu n’ agahinda

Ububasha bwawe, Mwami,

Bundokore mu byaha

Kand’ Umwuka w’ ubugingo

Ujy’ unkura mu bibi

Nemeye kwitanga rwose,

Nta cyo nishigarije;

Mpisemo kujyana nawe

No kukumvira, yesu

Njye nkuyobokan’ ishimwe

Kukw ari wow’ ubimpa;

Ujy’ unyobor’ inzir’ ijya

Mu bgami bgawe bgiza

Reb’ uyu muhigo mpize

Nibwo nzivuguruza

Wukomeresh’ amaraso

N’ urukundo wankunze

Itek’ iyo nirebyeho,

Ndiheba, nkazimira;

Ariko kuk’ ujy’ unkunda,

Uzamfasha, Mukiza
