kubera igitabo c’inzira c’ubudagi

cotuma baza kuntabara

ariko ntitwigeze duhagarika kurondera kazoza keza

igihe cambere naja i  Burundi jenyene,   

mawe yantegetse ko niyandikisha kuri embassade y’Ubudagi

hagize ikiba, boca bantabara 

“ni vyiza”

ariko, none, data wacu, abana biwe n’umugore wiwe babaye abande?

“notegerezwa kubasiga inyuma” 

babaye abande?

“muravyumva?”
