Ntimuri Mwenyone

[Verse 1]
Muze mwenyine, twihererane,
Munsang’ ahantu hatar' abantu;
Dor’ imiruhw irabarembeje,
Urusaku rurabaruhije.

[Chorus]
Murek’ ibyifuzwa n'ab'iyi si,
Mushak' ibyahishw’ abanyabwenge;
Jyewe na Data tubana namwe:
Ntimuri mwenyone, turi kumwe.

[Verse 2]
Murajye mumbwir’ ibyo mwibwira,
Ibyo muvuga n'ibyo mukora;
Mu miruho yanyu munaniwe,
Bimenywa n'uz' imigambi yanyu.

[Chorus]
Murek’ ibyifuzwa n'ab'iyi si,
Mushak' ibyahishw’ abanyabwenge;
Jyewe na Data tubana namwe:
Ntimuri mwenyone, turi kumwe.

[Verse 3]
Inzir' iraruhije mwitange,
Mutazananirwa mukigenda;
Mury' umutsim' uter' imbaraga,
Munywe no ku mazi y'ubugingo.

[Bridge]
Iyo intege zacu zishize,
Ijambo ryawe riduhumuriza;
Mu nzira ndende utuyobora,
Mu rukundo rwawe turaruhuka.

[Chorus]
Murek’ ibyifuzwa n'ab'iyi si,
Mushak' ibyahishw’ abanyabwenge;
Jyewe na Data tubana namwe:
Ntimuri mwenyone, turi kumwe.

[Outro]
Ntimuri mwenyone, turi kumwe,
Mu rukundo rwawe turi kumwe.
