[Kinyarwanda] What Remains

Lyrics

[Intro – Piano Yoroheje, Inyuma y'Injyana, Korali Y'Umutuzo]

Hmmmm...

Mbere y'uko tumenya amazina yacu...

Mbere y'uko tuvuga amagambo ya mbere...

Mbere y'uko tunzoza inzozi zacu za mbere...

Twahawe impano...

Igihe gito.

N'amahirwe yo gukunda.

[Umurongo wa 1]

Tugeze nk'izuba rya mugitondo,
Tugenda bucece ku isi,
Umwuka uhinduka umutima,
Ubuzima busanga agaciro kabwo.

Twakusanya ibihe n'ibitekerezo,
Twiga gusetsa no kurira,
Dufata intoki z'abandi,
Baba impamvu yacu.

Hari abamara igihe kinini,
Hari ingendo ziboneka nk'aho ari ngufi,
Ariko buri mutima uduhura nawo
Usiga ikintu imbere.

[Pre-Chorus]

Imyaka ishobora guca nk'imigezi,
Iminsi ishobora guhera mu maso,

Ariko urukundo rukomeza kwandika inkuru
Nyuma y'ijoro ryo gusezera.

[Chorus]

🌍 Ntakintu cyakundwe kibura,
Icyatanzwe ntikibura.

Ibiseke,
Inyigisho,
Bikomeza kubaho nyuma y'imyaka ishize.

Nubwo intoki zacu zishobora gutandukana,
Amajwi yacu akabura mu maso,

Urukundo rukomeza kugenda mu isi
Mu buzima twakozeho kandi twamenye.

🌍 Ntakintu cyakundwe kibura,
N'inzozi,
N'indirimbo.

Kuko umutima wibuka iteka
Icyo umutima wabitse.

[Umurongo wa 2]

Ijwi rya mama,
Ubwenge bwa papa,
Urusaku rw'inshuti isanzwe,

Ibintu bito twatekerezaga ko ari ibisanzwe
Bikora urugendo rwose.

Intebe itagira umuntu ishobora kubika inkuru,
Ifoto ishobora kuvuga,

Kandi ahandi mu buzima bw'undi
Urukundo twatanze ruracyahumeka.

Kuri buri neza twagize mu nzira,
Kuri buri mutwaro twafashije,

Bihinduka urumuri mu wundi
Nyuma y'uko tugenda.

[Pre-Chorus]

Inyenyeri zikomeza kwaka nyuma y'uko izuba rirenze,
Inyanja iririmba nyuma y'igikoma,

Kandi urukundo rukomeza gushaka inzira zo kubaho
Ku rundi ruhande.

[Chorus]

🌍 Ntakintu cyakundwe kibura,
Icyatanzwe ntikibura.

Ibiseke,
Inyigisho,
Bikomeza kubaho nyuma y'imyaka ishize.

Nubwo intoki zacu zishobora gutandukana,
Amajwi yacu akabura mu maso,

Urukundo rukomeza kugenda mu isi
Mu buzima twakozeho kandi twamenye.

🌍 Ntakintu cyakundwe kibura,
N'inzozi,
N'indirimbo.

Kuko umutima wibuka iteka
Icyo umutima wabitse.

[Bridge – Korali Izamuka]

Wenda ubuzima n'urupfu ntabwo bihabanye.

Wenda ni ibice
Mu nkuru nziza imwe.

Umwe utwigisha uko tugera.

Undi utwigisha uko twarekura.

Hagati yabo...

Duhawe amahirwe

Yo gukunda byimazeyo.

Yo kubabarira by'ubuntu.

Yo kuzamura undi mutima.

Yo gusiga isi ibengerana kurusha uko twayisanze.

Kuko ibyo dutanga mu rukundo

Ntibijyana natwe.

[Final Chorus – Korali Yuzuye]

🌍 Ntakintu cyakundwe kibura,
Icyatanzwe ntikibura.

Ibiseke,
Inyigisho,
Bikomeza kubaho nyuma y'imyaka ishize.

Buri nzozi twafashije kuzanzamuka,
Buri ntoki twafashe neza,

Bikomeza kubaho nyuma y'aho dutandukaniye
Kandi bikomeza kudufasha.

🌍 Ntakintu cyakundwe kibura,
N'inzozi,
N'indirimbo.

Kuko umutima wibuka iteka
Icyo umutima wabitse.

Kandi ubuzima bwose twakozeho neza
Bikomeza gutuma tugumana.

[Outro – Piano & Korali Igenda Ijya Hasi]

Umunsi umwe...

Hari uzavuga izina ryawe.

Hari uzibuka inseko yawe.

Hari uzatwara ubutwari bwawe.

Hari uzasakaza ineza yawe.

Kandi ahandi...

Mu mutima wafashije gukira...

Igice cyawe kizakomeza kubaho.

Kuko urukundo rutigeze kwiga gupfa.

Hmmmm...
