Gushimisha · 4 verses

1.

Abakund’ Imana mwese,

Ni hagir’ abapfa muri mwebwe,

Cyangwa se natwe tugapfa,

Tuzahurir’ i Siyoni twese

Turashima Iyatumye

Tumaran’iyi minsi

(All who love God,)

(Whether some die among you,)

(Or we ourselves die,)

(We will all meet in Zion)

(We thank the One who caused)

(Us to spend these days)

2.

Nta mwenda wose dufite:

Twiteguye gufashwa n’ Imana

No kwamamaz’ Ubutumwa

Mu bihugu tugiyemo byose

(We have no debt at all:)

(We are ready to be helped by God)

(And to proclaim the Gospel)

(In all the countries we go to)

3.

Iki gihe tumaranye,

Twari dufatanirije hamwe;

None natwe turagiye,

Namwe musigarane n’ Imana

(This time we have spent,)

(We had joined together;)

(Now we are also leaving,)

(May you also remain with God)

4.

Nshuti zacu, twarabanye;

Tubasezeranyeh’ urukundo

Dushim’ Imana yatumye

Dufatany’ iki gihe tumaze

None, ngaho, murabeho !

Iman’ ibane namwe

(Our friends, we have shared together;)

(We promise you love)

(We thank God who caused)

(Us to unite this time we have spent)

(Now, well then, farewell!)

(May God be with you)
