Nkunda kumv’ amakuru y’ umurwa

Uri kur’ ahateger’ ibyago,

Kand’ umucyo n’ Umwana w’ intama

Umuns’ umwe nzawinjiramo

Haleluya, ni ko mvuz’ impundu!

Haleluya, nzinjira mu murwa!

Haleluya, ndi hafi kujyamo

Umuns’ umwe nzawinjiramo

(I love to hear about that city)

(That is in a place safe from calamities,)

(And the light is the Lamb)

(One day I will enter it)

(Hallelujah, thus I shout for joy!)

(Hallelujah, I will enter the city!)

(Hallelujah, I am close to going there)

(One day I will enter it)

Nta marir’ aba mur’ uwo murwa,

Nta muruh’ ubayo n’ intambara

Nta n’ indwar’ ishobora kubayo

Umuns’ umwe nzawinjiramo

Haleluya, nuzuy’ ibyishimo,

Haleluya, nzinjira mu murwa

Haleluya, ndi hafi kujyayo

Umuns’ umwe nzawinjiramo

(There are no tears in that city,)

(No weariness there nor war)

(No disease can be there)

(One day I will enter it)

(Hallelujah, I am full of joy,)

(Hallelujah, I will enter the city)

(Hallelujah, I am close to going there)

(One day I will enter it)

Abazajya mur’ icyo gihugu

Bazaba bambay’ imyenda yera

Babikiw’ ikamba ry’ izahabu

Umuns’ umwe nzakigeramo

Haleluya, nta gushidikanya

Mw ijuru hariy’ umunezero

Nta bw’ umubabar’ uba mw ijuru

Niringiye kuzinjiramo

(Those who will go to that country)

(Will be wearing white garments)

(Reserved for them are crowns of gold)

(One day I will reach there)

(Hallelujah, without doubt)

(In heaven there is joy)

(There is no sorrow in heaven)

(I trust I will enter there)
