Dawe uli mu ijuru
Izina lyawe lyubahwe
Ingoma yawe yogere hose.
Icyo ushaka gikorwe mu ijuru
Nk'uko gikorwa mu ijuru.
Ifunguro lidutunga uliduhe none
Utubabalire ibicumuro byacu.
Nk'uko natwe tubabalira abaducumuyeho.
Ntudutereranee mu bitwoshya
Ahubwo udukize icyago.
Amina.

Data wa twese uri mu ijuru,
Izina ryawe ryubahwe,
Ubwami bwawe buze,
Ibyo ushaka bibeho mu isi,
Nk'uko biba mu ijuru;
Uduhe none ibyokurya byacu by'uyu munsi;
Uduharire imyenda yacu,
Nk'uko natwe twahariye abarimo imyenda yacu;
Ntuduhäne mu bitwoshya,
Ahubwo udukize umubi;
Kuko ubwami n'ubushobozi n'icyubahiro ari ibyawe,
None n'iteka ryose.
Amen.

Data uri mu ijuru,
Izina ryawe niryubahwe,
Ubwami bwawe nibuze,
Ibyo ushaka bibe ari byo bikorwa ku isi,
Nk'uko bikorwa mu ijuru;
Uduhe none ifunguro ridukwiriye.
Utubabarire ibyo twagucumuyeho,
Nk'uko natwe tubabarira abaducumuyeho;
Ntutureke ngo tugwe mu byadushuka,
Ahubwo uturinde Sekibi;
Kuko ubwami n'ubushobozi n'ikuzo ari ibyawe iteka ryose.
Amina.
