Naho natanga ibyo ntunze byose ,
nanjye (even if I give all I possess
ubwanjye nkitanga ngo ntwikwe(and though I give my body to be burned) ,ntacyo
byamarira bimpindukiye ubusa (it’s in vain ,they are not of help
Gukiranuka kw’umwami ni kwinshi.
( the standard of the Lord is High )
Uwiteka nyir’ubwenge bwose
God is Omniscient)
Yarabigaye ibyabisi Bose
( he has Disqualified the Righteousness of men )
Mu kwera kwe ntawa hagarara
( no one can stand in his righteousness)
Gukiranuka k’umwami ni kwinshi
(The standard of the lord is high )
Ubwo mbony’inzira reka Ngushime
( Now for I have seen the only way , let me Rejoice )
Mbonye ya nzira wiciriye
I have found the only worthy way you have created )
Umpaye umwami wanjye Andengere
( you have given me my Lord for my redemption)
Ntayindi nzira yobonetse
Truly there is no other way to be found )
Gukiranuka k’umwami ni kwinshi
( the standard of the Lord is High )
Chorus :
Mutanga bugingo we
(Oh life Giver )
Nyir’ubutungane
( the righteous one )
Nyen’imbabazi
The merciful one
Nyir’ubuntu bwinshi
The Gracious one
Mbega ukuntu agira neza
Oh how kind He is
Mbuz’amazina na mwita
I have not enough names to name him
Icyo narinkenye nicyo yampaye
(He saw what I needed and That’s what he gave me )
Narinkenye imbabazi Yarambabariye
(I needed Forgiveness
And he Forgave me )
Narimfi’urubanza amber’umurengezi
(I had a penalty and he became my Redemption.)
Mbega we
Ukuntu agira neza
(Oh how kind He is )
Mbuz’amazina na mwita
(I have not enough names to name him)
Mbega we
Ukuntu ari mwiza
(Oh how beautiful He is )
Mbuz’amazina na mwita
(I have not enough names to name him)
Mbega we
Ndatangaye Mukiza
(Oh my Lord ,I am amazed )
Mbuz’amazina na mwita
(I have not enough names to name him)
