1. Mana, uzi ibyanjye neza,

Igihe ndyamye n’igihe mbyutse.

Ugenzura ibindi mu mutima,

Ibyo mvuga n’uko ngenda urabizi.

Wambonye nkiri urusoro,

Wanabonye amagufwa yanjye.

Ndetse ishusho yanjye yaranditswe.

Nzavuga inzira zawe zitangaje.

Ubumenyi bwawe buratangaje;

Ubugingo bwanjye burabizi.

Ni yo nabundikirwa n’umwijima,

Yehova nzi neza ko wambona.

Ni he nakwihisha Yehova,

Nahungira amaso yawe he?

Si mu kirere cyangwa ikuzimu,

Si mu mwijima, si no munsi y’inyanja.
