(Sung in Kinyarwanda)

Ndazi ko mwaraye ijoro muroba (I know You’ve worked hard all night fishing)
Kandi ntakintu nakimwe mwafashe (But did not catch anything)
None ndavuze, mwizere (But now I speak, Trust in me)
Mujugunye inshundura mumazi (Let down the nets)

Ndazi ko umaze iminsi ku kidendezi (I know it’s been a long time waiting by the healing pool)
Utegerej’ umuntu ukugirira impuhwe (Waiting for someone to have mercy on You)
Dore nkugezeho, wizere (Now I have reached you, trust in me)
Ikorere uburiri utahe (Rise, carry Your bed and walk)

Ndazi ko umaze iminsi usabiriza (You have been begging on the streets)
Abahisi abagenzi barakumenye (Everyone knows about You)
Dore nkugezeho, wizere (Now I have reached you, trust in me)
Genda uvuge inkuru nziza (You are healed, spread the Good News)

Refrain:
Ijambo Ry’umuremyi (The Word of the Creator)
Rigeze aho ndi, ndahembuka (Has reached me, and I am healed)
Rimenagura imiringa (It breaks all the chains)
Rihindisha Umushyitsi Imisozi (And shakes the mountains)
Iyo avuze, rimwe gusa (When He speaks, only once)
Ibiriho byose birumvira (All the creations obey)
Ugire ico uvuga! (Say something!)
Ugire ico umvugaho mwami! (Say something about me Oh Lord!)
Ugire ico uvuga! (Say something!)
Ugire ico umvugaho Mwami! (Say something about me, Oh Lord!)
Numvigaho rimwe ndahembuka (If You speak over my life, I will be healed)
Nuvug’ ibyanjye biratungana (If you speak over my situation, they will be perfect)
Numvigaho rimwe ndahembuka (If You speak over my life, I will be healed)
Nuvug’ ibyanjye biratungana (If you speak over my situation, they will be perfect)

Dore igihe mumaze kuri uyu musozi (You have spent enough time on this mountain)
Sugushidikanya ni kirekire (No doubt it’s a long time)
None ndavuze, muhindukire (Now speak, turn around)
Mmbagabiye igihugu (I have given you the land)

Jambo ryiza (The perfect Word)
Jambo ni inkota ihinguranya (Word that penetrates like a sword)
Iryo niryo rirema, rikaremesha, umutima (It is the only one, that can restore a heart)
Andi magambo yose (All other words)
Yo ni ibitekerezo, birasanzwe (Are simply opinions, they are normal)

Hazab’ imisozi, itazakurwaho (There will be mountain that will not be moved)
Hazaba n’inzuzi, ntazashobora kwambuka (They will be waters I won’t be able to cross)

Si buri ndirimbo, izanduhur’umutima (It is not every song that will comfort my heart)

Ijisho ryawe nirimbeho, ibihe n’ibihe (May you never stop watching me,  from generation to generation)
Ineza yaw’ imperekeze kundunduro (Your goodness walk with to the very end)
Iri ni isengesho, nkumeney’umutima ( This is my prayer, I pour out my heart to you)
Icyo nsaba, tugumane, niba nkugiriyeho umugisha (This I ask, stay with me, if I have found favor before You)
