Yes' aradubamagara

Yes’ aradubamagara,

Ati: Nimubyuk’ ubu:

Ibisarurwa bireze,

Unsarurira ni nde ?

Uhamagawe na Yesu:

Ni wow’ ubgaw’ ashaka !

Umwitabish’ umutima

Uti: Mwami, nyakira !

Ntuzahere kure cyane

Kwamamaz’ ibya Yesu:

Abaguye bari hafi,

N’ abazimiye na bo

Umurim’ uradutota;

Dufit’ umwete muke

N’ ubur’ integ’ umusange,

Uti: Mwami, mfash’ ubu !

Nubg’ utazi gushyomoka

Kuk’ utar’ umuhanga,

Hamya gusa ko wamenye

Ko Yes’ ababarira

Ujy’ ubgir’ abandi bose

Ibyo yagukoreye;

Nuk’ umwinging’ agufashe,

Uti: Mwami, nyigisha !

Hataboneka muri twe

Uvuga kw ananiwe !

Udushoboza ni Yesu

Gukund’ ibyiza byose

Dukor’ iyo mirimo ye

N’ urukundo n’ umwete,

Maz’ ishize, tuzavuge,

Tuti: Mwam’ utwakire !
