Mbes’ aho wamenye rya zina ryiza(Have you ever known that beautiful name)

Ry’ Umukiza wacu Yesu?(Of our Savior Jesus?)

Riraririmbwa mur’ iyi si yose,(It is sung throughout this whole world,)

Rivugwa mu bantu bose(Spoken among all people)

Yesu ni we zina rihebuje,(Jesus is the name above all,)

Rirut’ ayandi yose mw isi(Greater than all other names on earth)

Rifit’ imbaraga zo kudufasha,(It has power to help us,)

Ridukiz’ ibyaha byose(To save us from all sins)

2.

Ni ryo rihoz’ umutim’ ubabaye(It is what comforts the grieving heart)

Riratunezeza rwose(It truly makes us joyful)

Mu mubabaro no mu byago byinshi(In suffering and in many calamities)

Ribasha no kuturinda(It is able to protect us)

3.

Ndetse no mu mwijima mur’ iyi si(Even in the darkness of this world)

Rimurika nk’ inyenyeri(It shines like a star)

Rimp’ amahoro, rimpa n’ ubutwari(It gives me peace, it gives me courage)

Ndetse no kugeza gupfa(Even until death)

4.

Amazina yos’ aribagirana(All names will be forgotten)

Kerets’ izina rya Yesu(Except the name of Jesus)

Rizahora rimurika mw ijuru(It will forever shine in heaven)

Yesu ni we zina ryiza(Jesus is the beautiful name)
