Enfumu 13
Omwana oine obwengye ahurira okuhabura kwa ishe,
Kwonka omugayi taikiriza kuhanwa. 2
Omuntu arya ebirungi naabiiha omu birikuruga omu kanwa ke,
Kwonka eki endeebya zeetenga n'okunyagisa abandi amaani. 3
Orinda akanwa ke aba arinzire amagara ge,
Kwonka okaashamya munonga aryacwekyerera. 4
Omutima gw'omweremwa gwetenga, haza tiguritunga;
Kwonka omutima gw'omweziriki guhaaga ebirungi.
Omuntu ohikiriire ayanga ebishuba,
Kwonka omubi ayetamisa, kandi ayehemura. 5
Okuhikiirira kurinda ou omuhanda gwe gugororokire,
Kwonka obubi bugwisa ababi. 6
Hariho oyegira omutungi, haza ataine ki aine;
Kandi hariho oyegira omworo, haza aine eitungo ringi.
Amagara g'omuntu gacungurwa eitungo rye,
Kwonka omworo tagira ky'okumucungura. 7
Omushana gw'ohikiriire gwaka gye,
Kwonka etabaaza y'omubi eryaraazibwa.
Amaryo gareeta entongane zonka,
Kwonka obwengye bugirwa abaikiriza kuhaburwa. 8
Eitungo rya bugubugu riryatuuba,
Kwonka orikutunga mporampora aryarikanyisa. 9
Amatsiko gatahweire garusya omutima,
Kwonka ekirikwetengwa ku kiboneka, kiba ekiri ky'amagara. 10
Ogaya ekigambo kya Ruhanga, ayereetera kucwekyerera,
Kwonka oyorobera ekiragiro kye, aryaheebwa ebihembo. 11
Okwegyesa kw'abanyabwengye n'enshuro y'amagara,
Kureetera omuntu kwetantara emitego ya rufu.
Okumanya okuhikire kureeta obushongore,
Kwonka omuhanda gw'abasiisi gurusya. 12
Orikwerinda weena akoresa okumanya,
Kwonka omushema ayoreka obushema bwe butunu. 13
Entumwa mbi enaga abantu omu kabi,
Kwonka entumwa erikwesigwa ereeta obugwa gye. 14
Oyanga kuhaburwa, omugabo gwe guba obworo n'okuhemuka,
Kwonka okunda kuhanwa aryaheebwa ekitiinisa.
Ebirikwetengwa ku bihikiirizibwa, bishemeza omutima,
Kwonka okwetantara ebibi n'ekirikunugwa aha bashema.
Ogyenda n'abanyabwengye, nawe ahinduka omunyabwengye,
Kwonka mugyenzi w'abashema aryakizira. 15
Akagwe kahiiga abasiisi,
Kwonka abahikiriire baryaheebwa okugogyera. 16
Omuntu murungi atsigira abaijukuru obuhunguzi,
Kwonka eitungo ry'omusiisi ribiikirwa abahikiriire.
Emisiri y'abooro eyeza bingi,
Kwonka ehwa neenyagirwa busha. 17
Otateera mwana we, amwanga,
Kwonka omukunda, amuhana bukiri kare.
Ohikiriire agira ebirikumuhaazya,
Kwonka enda y'omubi eguma n'enjara.
