HYMNOS -UTWIBUKE LYRICS AND TRANSLATION

Isaiah 49:15Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child 

she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!

 16See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; 

your walls are ever before me. 17Your children hasten back, 

and those who laid you waste depart from you.


 Abanyempano benshi baruhukiye mu bituro 

[The most gifted people rest in the graves]

Abanditse indirimbo zagaruye benshi Ku gakiza baribagiranye

[The powerful songwriters who led many to salvation have been forgotten]

Abari intwari mu byo kwizera bararashwe baragwa

[The mighty giants of faith have been shot dead]

Abari baturangaje imbere bahumishijwe amaso n’ibirabagirana by’iyisi

[Those who guided us were blinded by the pleasures of this world]

 

Uko ibyo byose biba, niko urukundo rwawe rwiyongera umunsi ku munsi 

[Even while all these changes are happening, your unwavering love grows day by day]

Imbabazi zawe zikuzura isi, maze abahora imbere yawe tugahabwa ihumure

[Then your mercies cover the earth, and we who are always in your presence, find solace]

 

Sinjya nibona ahatari Yesu 

[I don't see myself without Jesus]

Nubwo umwijima watwikiriye Isi

[Although darkness has covered the earth]

Abari muri Yesu turamurikiwe 

[Those who are in Jesus are illuminated by light]

Abahora hafi y’Imana ducanye nk’inyenyeri 

[For us, who are always close to God, we shine like stars]

Twakuvaho tukajyahe handi 

[If we depart from you, where else can we go?]

Twasiga umugabane wacu tukajyana iki 

[What would we take if we left our portion?]

Uduhe guhora imbere yawe iteka

[Grant us the grace to live in your presence eternally]

Turinze kuzuzwa ibiva mwijuru 

[As we wait to be filled with what comes from heaven] 

 

Utwibuke mu minsi mibi udukure aha hatabona

[Remember us during these trying times and lead us out of the shadows]

Ni wowe dutegereje ho ubutabazi 

[We look forward to your help]

Kuko ntitwibona ahatari Yesu 

[Because we cannot identify ourselves without Jesus]

 

Amen Amen inkuru nziza Iva ku Mana ndayumvise 

[Amen Amen I have heard good news from God]

Mu mutima wanjye ndayakiriye 

[I have received it in my heart]

Ishimwe n’iryawe iteka ryose 

[Praise belongs to you for eternity]
