Nsiz’ ububata n’ umwijima,
Ndaje, Yesu; ndaje, Yesu
Mbony’ umudendezo n’ umucyo:
Yesu, ndakwitabye !
Nsiz’ubutindi n’ uburema,
Mbony’ ubukire n’ intege nyinshi
Mvuye mu byah’ urankijije:
Yesu, ndakwitabye !

(I come, Jesus; I come, Jesus)
(I find freedom and light:)

(I find riches and much strength)
(Coming out of sin You saved me:)
(Jesus, I have answered You!)
Mvuye mu byago n’ ibihendo,
Ndaje, Yesu; ndaje, Yesu,
Mbony’ indamu mu rupfu rwawe,
Yesu ndakwitabye!
Mvuyemw intimba n’ amarira,
Ngeze mu byishimo. bidashira
Nshizemw induru, mpaw’ impundu:

(Coming out of troubles and deceptions,)
(I come, Jesus; I come, Jesus,)
(I find victory in Your death,)

(Coming out of sorrow and tears,)
(Arriving at joy that never ends)
(I leave crying, I receive rejoicing:)
(Jesus, I have answered You!)
Nsiz’ amahane n’ ubwigenge,
Ndaje, Yesu; ndaje, Yesu
Ngeze ku kwemer’ iby’ukunda,
Yesu, ndakwitabye!
Ntay’ ibyanjye, nguhungiyeho;
Mvuye mu bwihebe, nd’ amahoro:
Ntaye Satani, ngo mb’ uwawe:
Yesu, ndakwitabye!
(I leave pride and selfishness,)

Nsize gutiny’ urupfu n’ imva,

Mbony’ umutim’ ushyitse mu nda,
Yesu, ndakwitabye !
Nkuwe mu kanwa k’ inyamaswa,
Ntashye mu rugo rw’ intama zawe!
Mpere none, nkugandukire:
Yesu, ndakwitabye!
(I leave the fear of death and the grave,)
(I come, Jesus; I come, Jesus)

(I have entered the fold of Your sheep!)
(Starting now, I will follow You:)
