1 Uhoraho ni we muco wanje n’agakiza kanje;

none notinya nde?

Uhoraho ni igihome kinkingira;

none ni nde yontera ubwoba?

2 Abanyakibi nibantera

ngo bamire miyonzwa,

abansi banje n’abangwanya

ni bo bazotsitara batembe.

3 Naho ingabo zontera,

umutima wanje worema;

naho intambara yokwaduka intumbereye,

naho nyene norema.

4 Ico nsaba Uhoraho ni kimwe,

kandi ni co conyene ndondera:

ni ukuba mu Ngoro y’Uhoraho

imisi yose yo kubaho kwanje,

ngo nihweze ubwiza bw’Uhoraho,

ndamurondera mu rusengero rwiwe.

5 Kuko ku musi w’amagorwa

azonzigama amahoro mu Ngoro yiwe;

azompisha mu bwihisho bwo mw’ihema ryiwe

anshire hejuru ku rutare.

6 Maze umutwe wanje uzoshirwa hejuru

nsumbe abansi banje bankikije;

nzomushikanira ikimazi mw’ihema ryiwe ryera n’akamo k’umunezero;

nzoririmba ncurarangire Uhoraho.

7 Uhoraho, unyumve ninakwambaza;

ungirire imbabazi unyishure.

8 Umutima wanje ukuvugako uti: "Rondera mu nyonga hiwe!"

Mu nyonga hawe ndaharondera, ewe Uhoraho.

9 Ntumpishe mu nyonga hawe,

ntuhebe umusavyi wawe kubera uburake;

wamye uri umutabazi wanje,

ntunte canke ngo umpebe,

ewe Mana Mukiza wanje.

10 Naho data na mama bonta,

Uhoraho azonyitorera.

11 Nyigisha inzira yawe, ewe Uhoraho;

undongorere mu nzira igororotse

kubera abansi bankikije.

12 Ntundeke ngo ngwe mu vyo bipfuza,

kuko ivyabona vy’ibinyoma vyampagurukiye,

bavuga ivy’iterabwoba no kungirira nabi.

13 Ico nizigiye ntakekeranya ni iki:

Nzobona ukugira neza kw’Uhoraho

nkiri mw’isi y’abazima.

14 Urorere Uhoraho;

ukomere ureme mu mutima

kandi urorere Uhoraho.
