Gushimisha · 3 verses

1.

Yesu n’ az’ umwIjIm’ uzahunga,

Kand’urupfu na rwo ruzashIra;

Nta n’ uzac’ ukundi mu gicucu

Cya cya Gikombe kibi

Dukumbuye Yesu cyane !

Icyaduh’ akaza vuba !

Tuzishima twese, Yesu n’ aza

Gukorany’ Intore ze !

(When Jesus comes, darkness will flee,)

(And death also will pass away;)

(No one will again walk in the shadow)

(Of that evil Valley)

(We long for Jesus greatly!)

(What would stop Him from coming soon!)

(We will all rejoice, when Jesus comes)

(To gather His chosen ones!)

2.

Yesu n’ az’ azac’ umuborogo;

Azamara mw is’ umubabaro;

Azahanagur’ amarir’ ubgo

Kuri tw’ abakunzi be

(When Jesus comes He will end groaning;)

(He will end suffering in the world;)

(He will wipe away tears when)

(We His lovers are there)

3.

Yesu n’ az’ impundu zizavuga,

Aje kudukorany’ intore ze

Azatwakiran’ umunezero,

Tuban’ akaramata

(When Jesus comes, shouts will sound,)

(Coming to gather His chosen ones)

(He will receive us with joy,)

(We will live with Him forever)
