Inama zigirwa umwami

1 Ngaya amagambo y’Umwami Lemuweli,

ni imiburo akesha nyina.

2 “Umva mwana wanjye, mwana wanjye nibyariye,

mwana wanjye nasabye Imana.

3 Ntukamarire imbaraga zawe n’ingufu zawe mu bagore,

izo ndaya ziyobya abami ntukazishinge.

4 Mwana wanjye Lemuweli, divayi si nziza ku bami,

inzoga si nziza ku bategetsi.

5 Iyo banyoye bibagirwa amategeko,

bityo barenganya aboroheje.

6 Inzoga uzihe abagiye gupfa,

naho divayi uyihe abafite intimba.

7 Bityo bazanywa bibagirwe umubabaro wabo,

bibagirwe imiruho yabo.

8 Ujye uvugira abatagira ijambo,

ujye uvugira abavukijwe uburenganzira bwabo.

9 Ujye ucira abantu imanza zitabera,

ujye urengera abatishoboye.”
