Umurima w’ Iman’ ureze,

N’ igi he cyo kuwusarura

Mwa basaruzi muze vuba,

Gusarur’ ibisarurwa bye

Yes’ ubu turakwinginga:

Woherez’ abakozi bawe

Baterany’ ibyo bisarurwa,

Babigushyikirize Mwami

(God's field is ripe,)

(And the time to harvest it has come)

(O harvesters come quickly,)

(To gather its harvest)

(Jesus, now we beseech You:)

(Send Your workers)

(To gather that harvest,)

(To bring it to You, Lord)

2.

Ubazindure kare cyane,

Kand’ abandi mu gica-munsi

No mu gihe cy’ umugoroba,

Yes’ ubahamagare bose

(Wake them up early,)

(And others at midday)

(And in the evening time,)

(Jesus, call them all)

3.

Urahamagawe Mukristo,

Genda vuba udakererwa

Kandi wubur’ amaso yawe,

Kuk’ Umwami Yes’ aza vuba

(You are called, Christian,)

(Go quickly without delay)

(And lift up your eyes,)

(For the Lord Jesus is coming soon)

4.

Muze mwese duhaguruke,

Dukorer’ uwaducunguye

Hasigaye umwanya muto,

Akaza kutugororera

(Come everyone, let us rise up,)

(Let us work for the One who redeemed us)

(There is little time remaining,)

(He is coming to reward us)
