Ubu tunezerwe
Kuk’ umubabaro n’ ibyaha bishize
Umukiza wacu
N’ ukuri, ni muzim’ ubu ! Yarazutse !
Kuko ntabw’ imva ye
Yaherany’ umurambo we !
None twiringiye
Ko Yes’ uwo yazutse ! Yazutse ! Yazutse !
Yazutse N’ ukuri, ni muzima !
(Now let us rejoice)
(For sorrow and sin are past)
(Our Savior)
(Is truly alive now! He has risen!)
(For the tomb)
(Did not hold His body!)
(Now we are confident)
(That Jesus truly has risen! Has risen! Has risen!)
(He has risen, and truly, He is alive!)
Umunt’ iy’ apfuye,
Aruhuk’ umubir’ igihe gitoya;
Arindir’ umunsi
Abapfa bose bazava mu bituro
(A person who has died,)
(Rests in the body for a short time;)
(Waiting for the day)
(All the dead shall come from the tombs)
Urupfu n’ ubgoba,
Yesu yarabineshej’ arabihamba
Yes’ aradukunda:
Abana natwe, turiho no mu rupfu
(Death and its terror,)
(Jesus has conquered and subdued them)
(Jesus loves us:)
(As children we too live even in death)
