Mwa bitang’ igicuri mwe,

Muyoberw’ umusaraba,

Turababgira turira Yuko mubabaza Yesu

Mpisemo guhora nkizwa,

Ngashingwa mu gakiza ke;

Sinzava mu gakiza ke

(You who despise the treasure,)

(Who follow the cross,)

(We tell you weeping That you hurt Jesus)

(I choose to always believe,)

(I'm established in his salvation;)

(I will not leave his salvation)

2.

Mwa barets’ ubugingo mwe,

Mukabuguran’ iby’ isi,

Ubw’ ibyo bizabora se

Muzakuramo ndamu ki ?

(You who sell life,)

(And buy worldly things,)

(When those things perish)

(What profit will you gain?)

3.

Mwa barets’ igihugu mwe,

Cyuzuy’ ubuki n’ amata,

Mukimiranye vuba ye,

Musubiye mw Egiputa !

(Full of honey and milk,)

(You're leaving it quickly,)

(You've returned to Egypt!)

4.

Yemwe abavug’ inkuru mbi

Ya cya gihugu Siyoni,

Ibyo mwit’ amananiza

Bishoboker’ uwizeye

(You who speak bad news)

(Of that country Zion,)

(What you say discourages)

(Can be overcome by one who believes)

5.

Dor’ amaraso ya Yesu ;

Ni mo dukirizw’ ibyaha,

Ngwino, dusubiraneyo,

Tugere ku Musaraba !

(Behold the blood of Jesus;)

(It's where we're forgiven sins,)

(Come, let's return to it,)

(Let's go to the Cross!)

Yemwe bakunzi ba Yesu,

Mwihane, ye kubabara !

Mumaramaze kwitanga,

Igihe ni kigufi pe !

(Be patient, yes to suffer!)

(Finish dedicating yourselves,)

(The time is very short!)

7.

Mwa batuy’ imitwaro mwe,

Ko mugifit’ ingata se ?

Turababwira turira

Ko muri kure ya Yesu

(You who carry burdens,)

(Why do you still have them?)

(We tell you weeping)

(That you are far from Jesus)

Muze, musange Krisito,

Ku ntebe ye y’ imbabazi,

Dor’ abategerej’ ubu ;

Muz’ arabababarira !

(Come, meet Christ,)

(At his throne of mercy,)

(He's waiting for you now;)

(Come, he will forgive you!)
