Yes’ aradubamagara,(Jesus is calling us,)

Ati: Nimubyuk’ ubu:(Saying: Wake up now:)

Ibisarurwa bireze,(The harvest is ready,)

Unsarurira ni nde ?(Who will harvest for Me?)

Uhamagawe na Yesu:(You who are called by Jesus:)

Umwitabish’ umutima(Offer Him your heart)

Uti: Mwami, nyakira !(Saying: Lord, receive me!)

Ntuzahere kure cyane(Do not stay far away)

Kwamamaz’ ibya Yesu:(From proclaiming about Jesus:)

Abaguye bari hafi,(The fallen ones are nearby,)

N’ abazimiye na bo(And the lost ones as well)

Umurim’ uradutota;(The work is urgent for us;)

Dufit’ umwete muke(We have little time)

N’ ubur’ integ’ umusange,(And even with little strength,)

Uti: Mwami, mfash’ ubu !(Say: Lord, help me now!)

Nubg’ utazi gushyomoka(Even if you do not know how to preach)

Ko Yes’ ababarira(That Jesus forgives)

Ujy’ ubgir’ abandi bose(Go and tell all others)

Ibyo yagukoreye;(What He has done for you;)

Nuk’ umwinging’ agufashe,(So surrender and let Him help you,)

Uti: Mwami, nyigisha !(Saying: Lord, teach me!)

Hataboneka muri twe(There is none found among us)

Uvuga kw ananiwe !(Who speaks of being discouraged!)

Udushoboza ni Yesu(The One who enables us is Jesus)

Gukund’ ibyiza byose(To love all good things)

Dukor’ iyo mirimo ye(Let us do His work)

N’ urukundo n’ umwete,(With love and diligence,)

Maz’ ishize, tuzavuge,(When it is over, we will say,)

Tuti: Mwam’ utwakire !(Saying: Lord, receive us!)
