Gushimisha · 3 verses

1.

Nd’ agatama ka Yesu,

Ndanezerewe cyane

Mfit’ Umwungeri mwiza;

Ajy’ andagira neza

Arankunda, ndabizi;

Ijwi rye ndaryitaba

(I am a little lamb of Jesus,)

(I am very happy)

(Having a good Shepherd;)

(He guides me well)

(He loves me, I know it;)

(His voice I answer)

2.

Ajy’ anyahura neza;

Ntanyica, ntankubita

Kand’ angenza buhoro,

Ajy’ andagir’ aheza

N’ iyo nagiz’ inyota,

Anshor’ amazi meza,

(He corrects me gently;)

(He does not beat me or strike me)

(And He leads me slowly,)

(He always guides me well)

(And when I am thirsty,)

(He leads me to good water,)

3.

Singitinya, noneho:

Ndi mu ntama za Yesu:

Igihe ni kigera,

Akanshyura mu rugo

Nzagir’ umunezero;

Nta bukene kwa Yesu

(I am not afraid, now:)

(I am among Jesus's sheep:)

(When the time comes,)

(He will take me home)

(I will have joy;)

(There is no poverty with Jesus)
