Umaze kubateranya,(After uniting them,)

Muzabyare, —Muzaheke,(You shall bear children, —You shall multiply,)
Muzagwire, —Mwuzuz’ isi,(You shall grow, —Fill the earth,)
Muyitegeke n’ ibyayo(Govern it and all it contains)
Mujye mwitegeka neza,(Live governing well,)
Mufashanye, mukundane,(Help each other, love one another,)
Murengerane mwembi(Support each other both)
Mw ihirwe no mu makuba(In blessing and in trials)
Mu bworo no mu bukire,(In poverty and in wealth,)
Muzahimbaz’ Imana(You shall praise God)
Mana Data, —Ubarinde,(God the Father, —Protect them,)
Ngo bagume—Kuri Wowe,(That they may remain—With You,)
Mwami, jy’ ubiyegereza(Lord, You who test them)
Wa mukwe n’ umugeni mwe,(Bridegroom and bride,)

Mubane mu mahoro(Live in peace)
Nuk’ Umucunguzi wanyu(For your Redeemer)
Azabakomez’ iteka,(Will strengthen you forever,)
Arind’ urugo rwanyu,(Protecting your home,)
Abageze—Mw ijur’ i We,(Until you arrive—In His heaven,)
Ngo mutahe—Na bwa bukwe(That you may celebrate—The wedding)
Bw’ Umwana w’ intama, Yesu(Of the Lamb, Jesus)
