🎤 LYRICS
(Ibitero 1)
Nashika ahatari iwacu, umutima wanje uraturika
Nabaye nk’inyoni iguruka ata rugo
Ndaheba aho navukiye, sinzi iyo ndiko ndaja
Amaso yanje akama amarira y’ukwigumya

Muri iyo nzira ndavyibuka
Abavyeyi bampaye amahoro n’urukundo
Ariko inzara, intambara n’ivyago
Vyatumye ndagenda, umutima uhagaze

(Inyikirizo)
Ndaja, ndashika, ndafata inzira
Ndaja, ndashika, ndatwara umutima
Iyo uja hose, ntukibagire ivyawe
Uburundi ntibuvamwo umutima

(Ibitero 2)
Mu masango y’amahanga, nca ndondera amajambo
Abantu bariko baravuga, sinumva neza
Ariko ijwi ryo mu mutima riravuga:
“Komeza, mwana, ntureke icizere”

Ndafise ishaka ryo gusubira
Kandi ndiko ndubaka icizere gishasha
N’ukuri biragoye kwibagirwa
Ico wavuye, ico uri, aho wotaha

(Inyikirizo)
Ndaja, ndashika, ndafata inzira
Ndaja, ndashika, ndatwara umutima
Iyo uja hose, ntukibagire ivyawe
Uburundi ntibuvamwo umutima

(Iherezo)
N’iyo utari mu gihugu cawe
Rimwe na rimwe, indirimbo ziramutswa
Nkavuga nti: "Ndabandanya urugendo"
Nizeye ko nzogaruka, umutima ukeye
