Umva gusaba kwanjye,

Mwuka w’ Imbaraga !

Shyir’ ububasha bgawe

Mu mutima wanjye

Mwuka Wera, hishura

Ibyaha bindimo;

Mpesh’ ubugingo bushya,

Ibyaha bimvemo

(Hear my prayer,)

(Spirit of Power!)

(Put Your might)

(In my heart)

(Holy Spirit, cleanse)

(The sins within me;)

(Give me new life,)

(Remove the sins from me)

2.

Za mu mutima wanjye !

Mbese, nabaho nte,

Ntagufite ng’ umbemo?

Najya nizera nte ?

Mwuka, nyobora neza:

Nzajya nkwemerera;

Ump’ ubugingo bushya

N’ umutima mwiza

(Come into my heart!)

(Indeed, how can I live,)

(Without having You dwelling in me?)

Ne kongera gutinya

Iby’ Umwanzi mubi,

Kuk’ ukunda kumfasha,

Ukampa kunesha

Mwuka, nyemez’ ibyawe

Mu mutIma wanjye;

Uwuzuz’ ubugingo

No kunesha byose !

(I will no longer fear)

(The things of the evil enemy,)

(For You love to help me,)

(And give me victory)

(Spirit, establish Your things)

(In my heart;)

(Fill it with life)

(And all victory!)
