Har' intama urwenda n' icyenda

Har' intama urwenda n' icyenda Zari hamwe mu rwuri; Arikw imwe yar' izimiye, Ivuye ku Mwungeri, Mu bihanamang' izerera, Itaye umwungeri wayo mwiza. *(2)*

Iz' ufit' urwenda n' icyenda, Mbese, ntizihagije? Uwo Mwunger' ati: Sigaho! na yo n' iyanjye! Nahoyab' igeze kure he, Ngiye gushak' iyo ntama yanjye. *(2)*

Mu bacunguwe nta wamenya Imigezi yambutse No kuzerera mu mwijima, Ashak' iyo ntama ye! Yumv' intam' ihondobereye, Asang' ivunitse, yenda gupfa. *(2)*

Iyi nkora mbona n' iy' iki, Kw irimw amaraso se? Ati: ntuzi ko nanyuze aho, Nshaka intama izimiye? Ibiganza byishwe n' iki se? Byishwe n' amahwa muri iri joro. *(2)*

Umva, ngiry' ijwi rirangira Ry' uwo mwungeri mwiza, Ati mbony' iyo najimije, Ni munezerwe mwese! Nukw abamarayika bose Bavuz' impundu, banezerewe! *(2)*
