Ubgo nzabon’ Umukiza(When I see the Savior)

Ntumbira mu maso he,(Gazing into His face,)

Nzanyurwa mmwitegereje,(I will be thrilled as I behold Him,)

Ari We wamfiriye(He who died for me)

Nzamubona, Yes’ Umwami,(I will see Him, Jesus the Lord,)

Turi kumwe mw ijuru:(Together in heaven:)

Nzamwirebera mu maso,(I will look Him in the face,)

Njye mmusingiz’ iteka!(And I will praise Him forever!)

2.

Nkiri mw isi mu mubiri,(While still on earth in the flesh,)

Mbur’ uko mwirebera(Each time I look at Him)

Urya muns’ urenda kuza,(Coming down from beneath the veil,)

Mbon’ ubgiza bge bginshi !(I see His abundant goodness!)

3.

Amakub’ azab’ ashize,(The troubles will have passed,)

Nta byaha, nta mwijima:(No sins, no darkness:)

Ibigande biganduwe,(Knees bowed down,)

Tuzishim’ imbere ye !(We will rejoice before Him!)

Ni mwirebera mu maso,(As I look Him in the face,)

Nzicwa n’ umunezero(I will be overcome with joy)

Nzamumeny’ Uwo wankunze,(I will know the One who loved me,)

Akaz’ akanshungura(Who came and saved me)
