Enfumu 23
Ku orishutama kurya n'omutegyeki,
Oteekateekye ahari ogwo muntu okuri omu maisho.
Ku oraabe noomanya ngu ori omunyamururu,
Oyegumye omusyo aha mumiro.
Otaryetenga eby'okurya bye ebinuzire,
Ahabw'okuba nibibihabeiha. 1
Otarigwa ahaiguru noosherura eitungo;
Gira obwengye, okirekye. 2
Ku origumyaho amaisho, ribura,
Ahabw'okuba ahonaaho rigira amapapa,
Riguruka nk'empungu erikuza ahaiguru. 3
Otarirya eby'okurya by'efura-nkye;
Kandi otaryetenga eby'okurya bye ebinuzire. 4
N'obu araabe naakugira ati: Ija orye, kandi onywe!
Kwonka omu mutima gwe, naaba atakwetsire.
Ekitongye eki oriba waamira, oryakitanaka,
N'ebigambo byawe birungi bife busha.
Otarigira eki waagamba, omushema akuhuriire;
Ahabw'okuba aryagira ngu ebigambo byawe tibirimu bwengye. 5
Otarikuura ekiti ky'omwatano ogwa ira,
Nari okurenga, okaza omu kibanja ky'efuuzi; 6
Ahabw'okuba Omucunguzi waabo n'ow'amaani;
Aryakutonganisa, naabatonganira.
Omutima gwawe ogute aha kuhaburwa,
N'okutu kwawe aha bigambo by'okumanya. 7
Otarireka kuhana omwana;
Ku orikumuteera omunyaafu, tarikufa.
Ku orimuteera omunyaafu,
Oryakiza amagara ge okuza Okuzimu. 8
Mwana wangye, omutima gwawe ku guraabe gwine obwengye,
N'ogwangye nigwija kushemererwa.
Ku origuma noogamba ebihikire,
Amagara gangye garyashemererwa. 9
Omutima gwawe gutarigirira abasiisi eihari,
Kureka gugume nigutiina MUKAMA okurenzya eizooba. 10
Buzimazima haryabaho ebihembo;
Kandi amatsiko gaawe tigariihwaho. 11
Mwana wangye, hurira, kandi ogire obwengye,
Oshoronzye omutima gwawe omu muhanda. 12
Otariza omu mutwe gw'abanywi ba viinyo,
N'obu gwakuba ogw'abanyamairu; 13
Ahakuba omusinzi n'omunyanda baryaba abooro,
Kandi n'okuhungira kuryajweka omuntu obucancabari. 14
Hurira sho owaakuzaire,
Kandi otarigaya nyoko yaakura. 15
Gura amazima, kwonka otarigatunda;
Kandi ogure obwengye, okuhaburwa n'okwetegyereza.
Ishe w'ohikiriire aryashemererwa munonga;
Orikuzaara omwana w'obwengye aryayesiima ahabwe.
Ka sho na nyoko bashemererwe,
Kandi nyoko owaakuzaire ayesiime!
Mwana wangye, mpa omutima gwawe,
N'amaisho gaawe geetegyereze emitwarize yangye; 16
Ahakuba maraaya n'ekiina kiraingwa,
Kandi omukazi owaariire enshoni n'obusya bufunzire. 17
Agwera nk'omwambuzi,
Kandi akanyisa endeebya omu bantu.
Ebibi ebiruga omu businzi
Enaku zigirwa oha? Obusaasi bugirwa oha?
Empaka zigirwa oha? Okwetomboita kugirwa oha?
Obuhuta bwa busha bugirwa oha? Okutukura amaisho kugirwa oha? 19
Bigirwa abaraara enkyera,
Abaza kuvumba enturire.
Otareeba viinyo ngu niho erikutukura,
Yaaba neebirira omu kikopo,
Neesheneneka aha mumiro. 20
Bwanyima eruma nk'enjoka,
Etema nk'empiri.
Amaisho gareeba ensi neegyenda,
Omutima gwawe gugamba ebitakwatiraine.
Oshusha nk'obyami ahagati y'enyanja,
Nari nk'obyami ahaiguru y'omurongooti gw'omu meeri; 21
Okagira oti: Banteire, kwonka tinsaasire!
Baanyasire, kwonka tiinyine ki mpuriire!
Nsisiimukye ryari, nkaza kuvumba agandi!
