Nyumvira Shenge - Mwalimu LAKHPIN

    Nyumvira nkumve muhorakeye

    Narakubonye mbona urakeye

    N’ibiryo by’ubwo sinabiriye

    Mbona akamama kadasukuye

    Nyumvira mwari mbone ngukoye

    

      Ingabo zanjye maboko yanjye

      Ziruse igaju ngo ribe iryanjye

      Ubufaranga ubwo bw’ubushakwa

       Sinabuhombye twabushaka

       Rugero rwiza mpa inseko ikeye

      

       Nyumvira shenge mere nk’abandi

       Mbone akabanga karuta akandi

       Ako njye nshaka ntabona ahandi

       Maze n’icyasha kiruta ibindi

       Ni rwo rukundo ntasaba abandi

      

       Ngusabye akanya karuta akandi

       Nkubaze akantu gatega abandi

       Mvunira sambwe nkurushe abandi

       Nkugabe ituze ntari mutindi

       Ngo n’ifaranga rijya mu rindi

      

      N’iyo naba ndya ibi by’abatindi

       Nagusiga nkarya uruhayi

       Nkabura amazi nguha divayi

       Ngabira ituze nkubone waje

       Kuko ababeshya baratuganje

      

       Komeza wumve nyumvira shenge

       Narabibonye sinakubwira

       Ngusabye kuza utaguze inshinge

       Nkaguha amazi nanakubwira

       Nyumvira shenge mbone agahenge

      

       Ngize ngo izuba riranarenze

       Kuko ribonye mvuze irihenze

       Singuhenda ni ibi nsinze

       Abaryi bose ntibakurenze

       Urariboye njye mbona undenze

     

       Ngeze aha ngaha ntabihishuye

       Dore iri jambo njye ndarikuye

       Nguca amarenga ngo umenye ryose

       Kuko ndashaka ko umba iruhande

       Mpora nkureba nta gikingo

     

      Tetero ry’i tare mu batezi

      Ry’uwagutoye w’uruti rwiza

      Agata urwano rw’urutaturwa,

      Tikiro bwite uruta abatunzi

      Ukanatera umuteto iteka

       

       Nsigaye numvira nka karisimbi

       Ngo mpore ndota ndora iryo simbi

       Maze nkubwiye mbona aka kanya

       Ngo umenye cyane ko ntakurwanya

       Ko nagukunze bifashe umwanya

      

       Iyo nkureba ubwo mpita ntwarwa

       Nakureba nkabura indebo

       Iminwe yanjye yo ikagutinya

       Ingohe zose ubwo zigapfuka

      Ariko sinzi ko ari njye ukunda

     

      Mbona uyu munsi mbivuze none

     Ubite iwawe umenye ko mpiye

      Ubyumve n’ejo nkubone ikaze

      Unkize icyago cy’urukukumbe

      Mpore udasanga narasereye

      Ibi nkubwiye mbiteze umunsi

      Utari kuza unsubiza none

      Gusa unashake ako gahe keza

      Ibi nkubwiye ungabe iryo nkwiye,

      Nyumvira shenge nkurore ubwanjye

      

       Ni ibi akabanga mporana ngenda

       Iwanjye hanjye ni muri njyewe

       Haze ungenge ungenze neza

       Nitwe muhire mbe nkwihariye

       Utone ntatijwe nguhawe!
