Mukiza wacu Yesu,

Tukwakire dute?

Tukwakire twishimye:

Ngwin’ utwiberemo

wez’ imitima yacu ,

kand’ utumenyeshe

Ingeso nziz’ ukunda

N’ ibikunezeza

(How shall we receive You?)

(We receive You with joy:)

(Come dwell within us)

(Enter our hearts,)

(and teach us)

(The good ways You love)

(And what pleases You)

Wasiz’ ibyawe byose,

Uza mur’ iyi si,

Uraduhumuriza Kuko tubabaye

Nta watunyag’ ubgami

Bgawe bg’ amahoro:

Uhor’ udutabara,

Ukaturokora

(You left all You had,)

(Coming to this world,)

(You come to comfort us Because we suffered)

(No one showed us the kingdom)

(Of Your peace:)

(You always rescue us,)

(You deliver us)

Mbe n’ iki cyaguteye

Nta kindi, n’ urukundo

N’ imbabazi zawe

Ntushak’ abanyabyaha

Byatumy’ udutabara,

Turababarirwa

(To leave God's dwelling place?)

(Nothing else, but love)

(And Your mercy)

(You don't want sinners)

(To perish;)

(This caused You to rescue us,)

(We are forgiven)
