Artist : Aline Gahongayire
VERSE ONE
Igicu kibuditse
The hidden cloud
Ntabasha kureba imbere,
There is no way through
Nyura mu mwijima
In darkest time
Nkumva mpuzwe ubuzima
I am desperate
Kubwo kwiheba
Because I was in distress
Munzira yuzuye amahwa
On a thorny path
Mfite ubwoba mumutima ,
My spirit grew faint
Ibihe bisharira na gahinda
In bitterness and sorrow
Nibyo nari nuzuye
It was my agony
PRE-CHORUS
Mu muriro
Through the fire
Mu mazi
In deep waters
Mwishyamba ryinzitane
In the dense forest
Nkatabaza
I call upon
Nti Data
My Father
Niki kikundekesheje????
Why are you forsaken me ?
Nkarizwa numubabaro
I am in deep sorrows
Ntazi neza icyo umpishiye
Ignoring what you have kept for me
Mukiganza cyawe,,
In your hands
CHORUS
Wambonye kera urankunda
You saw me before the beginning of time and loved me
Ubona ko nduwagaciro
Your Precocious one
Maze umfatari umwanya
Then you took time to mold me
Urantunganya
You fix me
Umpindura zahabu
You made me pure as Gold
Y’Ubwiza butagereranywa (x2)
Of Incomparable Beauty (x2)
VERSE 2
Waretse intambara zingeraho
Through ups and downs
Kugirango ubone uko unyigisha urugamba
You taught me to stand firm
Wampishe kure ngo nujya
kunyerekana
You hide me away
Ugaragarize umucyo wawe murijye
To shine your light on me
BRIDGE
Mbonye ko Ari wowe
I see now that it is you
Uhuza ibis n’ibyiza
who associate all the goods and bad
Bikaba umugisha kurijye
Turning them working for my good
Ubu ndashima
Now I am grateful
Kubw’umugambi wawe wasohoje
For your perfect plan
Mu buzima bwanjye
Upon my life
CHORUS
Wambonye kera urankunda
You saw me before the beginning of time and loved me
Ubona ko nduwagaciro
Your Precocious one
Maze umfatari umwanya
Then you took time to mold me
Urantunganya
You fix me
Umpindura zahabu
You made me pure as Gold
Y’Ubwiza butagereranywa (x2)
Of Incomparable Beauty (x2)
