Do not ask if the battle is over; it is now, The war of life is still at the forefront. I strike the dry soil, I strike the dust, The little drum never stops, even when it gets late.

They called it the era of darkness; I see the sorrow, But the drum inside the heart does not fall silent. I beat it and I say, "I will not kneel," Because even the one called 'The Brave' fights.

The small drum of war beats firmly, The small drum of war does not miss the step. Verse 1: Ntawubaza ngo urugamba rushize, ni ubu, Intambara y'ubuzima iracyari iri ku isonga. Nkubita agashyi, nkubita agafu, Akaruru ntikarenga n'igihe kijya goro.
