Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mana, twakwibutse
uko wafashije basekuruza
Mu mababa yawe
ni ho basanze imbaraga
Twese turi hano
tukureba, tugukorere
Inzira zose ziremeza
iyo utuyoboye
[Pre-Chorus]
None natwe turahagaze
tukubwira umutima
Niba wababaye hafi
ntuzadutererana
[Chorus]
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Mu myaka iri mbere
Uzatuyobora
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Ijambo ryawe rirahagije
Tuzakwiringira
[Verse 2]
Iyo imvura yaguye
ni wowe twahamagaye
Iyo umutima ucitse
ni wowe waduteraga
Uzi amazina yacu
uzi n'ibanga ry'amarira
Uko watabaye aba kera
Niko uturi hafi
[Pre-Chorus]
None natwe turahagaze
tukubwira umutima
Niba wababaye hafi
ntuzadutererana
[Chorus]
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Mu myaka iri mbere
Uzatuyobora
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Ijambo ryawe rirahagije
Tuzakwiringira
[Bridge]
Uko wasezeranyije
ntiwigera uhinduka
Uko wafashije abawe
Niko no kuri twe
Tuguhaye urugendo
tuguhaye ejo hazaza
Mu biganza byawe
ni ho amahoro ari
[Chorus]
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Mu myaka iri mbere
Uzatuyobora
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Ijambo ryawe rirahagije
Tuzakwiringira
Mana, twakwibutse
uko wafashije basekuruza
Mu mababa yawe
ni ho basanze imbaraga
Twese turi hano
tukureba, tugukorere
Inzira zose ziremeza
iyo utuyoboye
[Pre-Chorus]
None natwe turahagaze
tukubwira umutima
Niba wababaye hafi
ntuzadutererana
[Chorus]
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Mu myaka iri mbere
Uzatuyobora
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Ijambo ryawe rirahagije
Tuzakwiringira
[Verse 2]
Iyo imvura yaguye

Iyo umutima ucitse

Uzi amazina yacu

Niko natwe uzadufasha
Niko natwe uzadufasha
Ijambo ryawe rirahagije
Tuzakwiringira
Style of Music
Worship ballad with a steady 72 BPM pulse, gentle hand percussion and warm piano arpeggios; verse stays intimate and prayerful, pre-chorus lifts with stacked male/female harmonies and a rising pad, chorus opens into full congregational singalong with sustained chords and soft clap accents. Close-mic lead vocal, doubled on key lines, with reverby ad-libs and a final swelling chorus. Wide, luminous mix with a tender church-room feel.
