Ubuvanganzo bw'umwimerere nyarwanda

Nyirakanyana

Nyirakanyana nakunze kera

Kera tucyigana amashuli

Nyandika mu mubare w’abagukunda

Komeza unkunde nk’uko wahoze

Ejo utazanyisha agahinda x2

Ntungaye gutinda ungaye guhera

Dore n’akandi neza kera

Nuramuka uhemukiye umunywanyi

Nzakugaya ndinde ngera i kuzimu

Kuko wanyishije agahinda x2

Nkumi y’inkundwakazi Nyirakanyana

Ngwino ndebe muhorakeye

Nsubira unsange mukobwa mwiza

Ngwino mutima uzira inenge

Ngana tuganire n’iyi ntimba x2

Mbe kugenza umugongo umpunga

Ntuhibuke duherekeranyije

Ku kagoroba mu kagarama

Wimashaga uhindura ibitwenge

Have udahemukira mu mahina x2

Ndose ibyiza duciye ukubiri

Ndabona impinga yabaye ndende

Ibyo nkunda birampakaniye

Na njye ibinkunda simbishaka

Mbese nk’ubu mburiwe na nde? X2
