Umwami wacu Yesu
Ni we Tanguriro
Ry' Ishengero yaremye
Mu mazi n' ijambo
Yazanywe mw isi yacu
No kudukiz' icaha,
Tumuber' Ishengero
Yaguz' amaraso
2
Ishengero ni rimwe
Mu mahanga menshi,
Ryizer' Umukiz' umwe,
N'ukuvuka kumwe,
Rishim' izina rimwe,
Risangiy' Ingaburo
Imwe y‘Umwami wacu,
Ryizigira kumwe.

Ewe kintu cazanye
Ibice muri ryo,
Ababi bari hanze
Bakarikengera!
Yamar' abera baryo
Bahora bari maso
Batakambir' Umwami
Ngw‘az' aritabare.

Mu vyago birigoye
Riruhurwa rwose ,
No kuzig' amahoro
Mu bihe bizoza:
Ryifuza kuzobona
Ivyiza vyo mw ijuru,
Rivuye mu ntambara,
Rinesheje rwose.
5
Kandi rikiri mw‘isi,
Rifitany' ubumwe
Na Dat' Imana yacu.
N' abayo mw ijuru:
Man' umpe kwama mmera
Nk' uko bamera mw isi,
Ngo nanje nshik' i wawe,
Mbahamvye mw ijuru.
