Nari narazimiriyekure, nibagiwe Yesu,

Niboney’ urukundo rw’ Umukiza

Sinzibagirw’ igihe nakizwaga,

Mu gihe cya Noeli, Turebye mu muvure

Nimuze mwese turirimbe,

Umucyo wabonekeye bose bari mu mwijima

Amasezerano yose ukw’ Iman’ iyatanga,

Za mbaraga zamanukiye abigishwa ba Yesu mu murwa Yerusalemu;

Umuriro wawe Mukiza,

Nezerwa, mutima wanjye, Kuko warons’ agakiza

Ndashaka kuririmbira Yesu,
