Ibyo dukora byose ni ibyawe, umucyo utuyobora,
Mubice byimuka, aho inzozi zifata indege,
Hamwe n'ibisamba byemera, kimwe na caress yoroheje,
Kwerekana imico, gutanga ibisobanuro bishize amanga, imyambarire ihinduka ururimi, inkuru yo kubwirwa.
Kuva izuba rirashe kugeza izuba rirenze, mu gihe cyose kinyuranye,
Imirongo n'imirongo yo kunuka, mubwumvikane bwuzuye,
Kurekura imbaraga zawe, mumabara ashize amanga kandi meza,
Ishingiro ryicyizere, gikuraho urumuri rwimbere.
Kwongorera imigani yumwanya.
Kurwanya uruhu, umuyaga witonda,
Simfoni ihumure, bizana neza.
Guhumeka no guhinduka, bigenda nkuko ubikora,
Kuguhisha uhumuriza, nkuko inzozi ziba impamo.
Kuva izuba rirashe ryirujutira izuba rirenze yoga,
Hamwe n'inkunga y'urukundo kandi yitonda,
Gushushanya imiterere yawe, n'ubuntu no korohereza,
Kureka ngo utsinde, ikintu cyose ushaka.
Mugihe utsinze uburebure bushya, imbaraga nubuhanga,
Ibyo dukora byose ni ibyawe, muburyo bwose hamwe numugozi,
Kuzamura imikorere yawe, nkuko wanditse inkuru yawe imbere.
Mubice bya siporo, duhagaze kuruhande,
Kwizihiza urugendo rwawe, umunezero n'ubwibone,
Ibyo dukora byose ni ibyawe, kubushake bwawe no kwifuza
Reka rero tube umuyobozi wawe, umufasha wawe wizewe,
Hamwe hamwe tuzatsinda, tugere mwijuru,
Erega ibyo dukora byose ni ibyawe, ubushakashatsi bwacu bwatanze,
Guha imbaraga, gutera inkunga, no kugufasha kuba mwiza.
Mw'isi ya siporo n'ubuzima bukomeye,
Intego yacu, ubutumwa bwacu, ubutunzi bwacu bw'iteka,
Ibyo dukora byose ni ibyawe,
Kwishimira ubwiza bwuwo uriwe.
