Har' Umwami wa kera

Har’ Umwami wa kera ;

Yar’ umugwaneza

Hari kuri Noweli,

Areb’ umutindi;

Yaratoraguraga

Udukwi ku kwezi

Imbeho yari nyinshi;

Yendaga no kumwica

Nukw abaz’ umwambari

W’ umuhungu muto,

At’ Uriya mutindi,

Uz’ i wabo, mbese?

Und’ aramusubiza,

Ati: Ye, ndahazi:

Aba mu kirorero

Cyo hirya y’ umusozi

Ati: Ngwino, mwambari,

Tumugemurire

Nzanir’ amafunguro

N’ibyo kunywa n’ inkwi

Barahagurukana,

Badatiny’ imbeho,

Kandi bihanganira

Umuyaga w’ icyago

Nyum’ umwan’ ariheba,

Atakir’ Umwami,

At’ Imbeh’ iranyishe:

Biramera bite ?

Nukw aramubgir’ ati:

Jy’ ushing’ aho mvuye:

Ubunyinya bg’ imbeho

Ntabgo buribukwice!

Umwan’ abigenz’ atyo,

Ager’ ikirenge

Mu cy’ Umwami, shebuja,

Maz’ ashir’ imbeho

Umwami n’ umwambari

Baca mu rubura,

Bajy’ ah’ umutind’ ari,

Baramugemurira

Natw’ inshuti za Yesu

Twe kwimeny’ ubgacu

Nkuko twababariwe,

Tubabarirane

Abajyana na Yesu

Gutabar’ abandi

Na bo bazagabana

Umugisha w’ Imana
