Avuze atya Uhoraho, we washatse inzira mu nyanja rwagati, agatanga akayira mu mazi magari, we wahagaritse amagare n’amafarasi, ingabo n’abantu b’intwari bose hamwe, bikagwa ubutazegura umutwe, bigahwekera nk’agatara, hanyuma bikazima. Mwikwibuka ibyabayeho mbere, ngo mukurwe umutima n’ibya kera, dore ngiye gukora ikintu gishya, ndetse cyatangiye no kugaragara; ntimukiruzi se? Ni ukuri rwose, ndahanga inzira rwagati mu butayu, inzuzi zitembe ahantu h’amayaga. Inyamaswa z’inkazi zizampe ikuzo, kimwe n’imbwebwe na za mbuni, kuko navubuye amazi rwagati mu butayu, n’inzuzi zigatemba ahantu h’amayaga, kugira ngo nuhire umuryango wanjye nihitiyemo, umuryango nihangiye, kandi uzahora uvuga ibisingizo byanjye.
Zaburi ya 125 (126), 1-2ab, 2cd-3, 4-5, 6
Igihe Uhoraho agaruye i Siyoni abari barajyanywe bunyago,
twabanje kugira ngo turi mu nzozi!
Ubwo umunwa wacu wuzura ibitwenge,
n’ururimi rwacu rutera indirimbo z’ibyishimo.
Nuko mu mahanga bakavuga
bati «Uhoraho yabakoreye ibintu by’agatangaza!»
Koko Uhoraho yadukoreye ibintu by’agatangaza,
ni yo mpamvu twasazwe n’ibyishimo!
Uhoraho, cyura amahoro abacu bajyanywe bunyago,
ubazane nk’isumo y’amazi atembera mu butayu.
Ni koko, umuhinzi ubibana amarira,
asarurana ibyishimo.
Uko agiye, agenda arira,
yitwaje ikibibiro cy’imbuto;
yagaruka, akaza yishimye,
yikoreye imiba y’umusaruro.
