Numvise Yes’ ambgir’ ati:(I heard Jesus tell me:)

Ngwino nkuruhure(Come, I will give you rest)

Zana ibyo bikuruhije,(Bring those things that burden you,)

Mbikwikorerere !(I will carry them for you!)

Musang’ uko nari nd’ uko ,(I came to Him as I was,)

Ndushye mfite ishavu;(Weary and full of bitterness;)

Ambera uburuhukiro,(He became my resting place,)

Amp’ umunezero(He gave me joy)

Numvise Yesu ambgira ati:(I heard Jesus tell me:)

Nguherey’ ubuntu(I give you grace freely)

Amaz’ azan’ ubugingo,(Then He brought life,)

Unyw’ uram’ iteka(Drink and live forever)

Njy’ ahw ari, nywa nezerewe(I went to Him, I drank joyfully)

kuri ayo mazi ye,(Of that water of His,)

umutima ushira inyota,(My heart that was thirsty,)

Mpabga ubugingo bwe(He gave me His life)

Numvise Yesu ambgira ati:(I heard Jesus tell me:)

Ni jye mucyo w’ isi(I am the light of the world)

wavukiye mu isi,(You were born in this world,)

wavukiye mu mwijima,(You were born in darkness,)

Ngwin’ umurikirwe(Come and be enlightened)

Ndebye kuri Yesu mbona(I look to Jesus and see)

kw ari izuba ryanjye(That He is my sun)

Rizamvira iminsi yose(It will shine for me all the days)

Y’ ubugingo bwanjye(Of my life)
