1 Mukiza, ndamaramaje,Ndatwaranira kugera
Ku rugero runkwiriye;Mwami mfasha ngo ndusheho.
Gusubiramo
Nzamura maze nger’ ahoWangeneye, Mwami wanjye;
Ku rugero rusumbyeho;Mwami mfasha ngo ndusheho.
2 Nta bwo ngifit’ umutimaWo kuguma mu by’iyi si;
Nubwo bamwe babikunda,Ngambiriye kujya mbere.
3 Ndashaka gusumb’ iby’isi,Nubw’ umwanz’ anyibasiye;
Kuko namaze kwizeraYukw Iman’ izandengera.
4 Ndashaka kumaraniraKurabukw’ ubwiza bwawe;
Ariko nkomeze nsenge,Ngez’ ubwo nzager’ i wawe.
