Gahugu kanje keza nakunze
Kama ku mutima
Uri gatoya ufise ubutore
Be n‘intwaro y‘intwari
Urampimbara ntaco noguha
Nkwipfurije vyinshi 


R/ Ni urambe usagarare

Waribarutse imfura nyazo

Ziharanira amajambere

Nta murundi w’umutima

Yovyibagira


Senga ry’insangi riva ku Mana
Kamwa amata n’ubuki
Warahahajwe, urahenagurwa
Mpore ntiwatemvye
Iyakuremye n’ikuzigame
Ntuzogwe mw’isanganya


R/ Ni urambe usagarare
Waribarutse imfura nyazo
Ziharanira amajambere
Nta murundi w’umutima
Yovyibagira


Urangwa ku mutima wa Afrika
Iteka n‘ itekane
Abo wavyaye urabegeranya
Nta murozi, nta mwansi
Azokwigera ahirahira
Ngo agukore mu kwaha


R/ Ni urambe usagarare
Waribarutse imfura nyazo
Ziharanira amajambere
Nta murundi w’umutima
Yovyibagira


Ewe Burundi abatakuzi

Bazotira akarembe

Bave kw‘ihanga bagane iyo uri

Wewe karaba uhore 

Bazova iwacu 

Bata amacumu baririmba bati :


R/ Ni urambe usagarare
Waribarutse imfura nyazo
Ziharanira amajambere
Nta murundi w’umutima
Yovyibagira.
