1 YESU ng'addayo gye yava
Mu buwanguzi-obungi
Mumulabe ye Kabaka
Afuga bakabaka.
Bamalayika be bomma
Bakuba nnyo ennanga,
Eggye lyonna ery'omu ggulu
Baaniriza Kabaka.
2 Ani ajja mu kitiibwa
N'obuwanguzi-obungi?
Oyo-ow'amaanyi mu ntalo
Awangudde-omulabe.
Bwe yafa ku musaalaba
Era n'ava mu ntaana,
N'aweebwa-erinnya-erisinga
Bonna bamusinzenga
3 Atuzuukizizza naffe,
Tufuge wamu naye
Eyo mu kitiibwa-ekingi
Ne bamalayika be:
Omulokozi afuga
Katonda-era omuntu
Erinnya lye wa kitalo
Katonda ataggwaawo.
4 Ekitiibwa-eri Kitaffe,
N'eri-Omwana we Yesu;
N'eri-Omwoyo-Omutukuvu
Era-omu mu Busatu;
Ekitiibwa kibe gy'ali,
Ensi zimuyimbire;
Ettendo libe mu ggulu,
-Era n'emirembe ku nsi
