  2. 02 IBYIRUKA RYA MAHERO I. Uyu mwana nabyiruye Namureze mukunze Yabyirukanye ubwenge Buvanze mu bwana Nkanibaza cyane Uko azaba bitinze. Agakura akora nabi Aho yatobye akondo Ngo akulikize abandi, Akabaka iby'iwabo Akabyita iby'iwacu. Nabyumva ngahinda Nti: ntabwo mbishaka, Ubusambo si bwiza Ubukunze atabeshya Aba yigira nabi. Aho amaliye gusoreka Ingeso ye ntiyacika Bukeye nti: ntabwo Nti: subiza iby'abandi, Ujye utwara icyo uhawe Icyo wimwe ugitinye. Uwo mwana uko ateye Biteye agahinda. Aho yaroye neza Uko akwiye kugenza, Ati: ndanze kugenda Ngo ntange ibyo ntunze. Iyo utwaye iby'abandi Bakuzi bakurora Ntibaze barwana Ngo bihe agaciro Mu maso y'abandi, Uragenda ukayora Ukabita abatinyi Ukagwiza iby'iwanyu. Ubwo aranga arahana Nkagira ngo arashyenga Naho aravuga akomeje. Ati: ndumva nahaze Guteshwa ibyo nshima Ngo nkunde ibyo ushaka. Ubu nshobora kugenda Ngashaka aho ndara Ejo nkigaba ahandi, Ejobundi ngakomeza Nkagera iyo utakibona, Kugira ngo nguhunge Amahane ni menshi. Ubwo mbonye icyo cyago Gikomeje imigambi Yo kwigisha icyohe, Ndakomeza ndatota Ngo none aratinya Aze kumva igikwiye. Nti: ibyo wigira byose Ndabirora nkazenga. Nakwitaga umwana Uyu uteye gitwali Agaturana neza N'abitwa ababyeyi. Ubwo utangiye kwanga Uwakureze akagukuza, Wamurora mu maso Inyeli zikavumera, Waba wicaye hasi Uti: intebe nayireke Nyishinge ho nanjye, Yaba agize ati: jya kurora Amatungo mu rwuli Ugatangira kwigira Icyatwa ugafunga; Yakubwira ati: cyono Jya kuzana utuzi Ugafuha ukarwana Ukica igiti n'isazi; Ubwo utangiye kwanga Amategeko nguhaye, Ubusore bwapfuye Wabaye Rubebe Jye nkwise icyontazi Icyo ushaka kimashe. Ubwo ngubwo arazenga Arababara ndabibona Arafunga ntiyakoma Bagize bati: yewe Ijambo liragatabwa Bahamagaye aranga Bagabuye ntiyabilya Bashashe ntiyalyama. Ubwo nyina akandeba Agatinya guhinda Akiruzi umuhungu Mu maso ya twembi. Yankebuka ngasanga Mu maso ye yombi Haganje agahinda Amagambo ajya kuvuga Ugasanga amugoye. Ubwo abana batoya Basanzwe basakuza Barwana bagabuza Bakandora bose Nakebuka umwe muli bo Agahumbya bukeya. Umwe yavuga ijambo Abandi bakamureba Igisubizo bashimye Ugasanga gituje Kitali mo amashyengo Aya asanzwe mu bana. Ngeze aho nti: cyo mwana Hamagara Mahero Aze ambwire icyo ashaka Mahero ati: ndaje Nkubwire icyo mashe; Aza atera ibitambwe Nti: ubanza rubaye. Ati: kera nkivuka Ntaramenya ubwenge Nali inka mu zindi Wahilika ngatemba Wanterura nkabyuka Washaka ko ndyama Ugahilika ku bulili Ibitotsi bikayora Mahero agahwikwa. Naba nakoze icyo wanga Ugaterura ugahonda Amahane ali nta yo Sinibaze na busa Uko nkwiye kugenza. Aho nshiliye akenge Ndakomeza ndakureka Nakosa nka gatoya Ubwo inkuba zigakubita Uti: mbyiruye icyontazi. Nkakureka ugakomeza Guhata ibicumuro Uwakoze uko ashoboye Kugira ngo akuneze. Umujinya waba ukomeje Ugaterura ugahonda Wananirwa ugatuza Uti: genda ndakuretse. Ibyo ngibyo nabirora Nti: nta ngufu zanjye Mba nshatse agahamba Nkareba aho najya Hasumbye ahangaha. Ubu ngubu ndareba Ngasanga ibyo ungilira Bikwiye guhosha. Ubwo wanyimye imbabazi Ngo nanjye nduhuke Ibyo kwitwa ikirumbo No kwicara mpondwa Ndakungura inama Igusumbira izindi Amahane ave mu rugo Uruhuke kurwana Nduhuke guhondwa; Cyo nshakira impammba Agatukuru gatoya Ngaterere ku mutwe Mfate agakoni kanjye Njye guhakwa aho nshaka Ahangaha mpacuke Ibicumuro nkugilira Uruhuke kubibona. Gutura amahanga Bizankiza byinshi. Bizampa guhunga Amahane y'I Rwanda, Aho bambura umuntu Abo abyaye bamurora, Agakubitwa umunani Ngo ikawa irarumbye, Ngo cyangwa umuzungu Yaraye rusake. Ibiboko wakubiswe N'amalira nahalize Ntibyatuma ntura Aho ndeba umuhashyi Wampinduye imbata Uwo ni inzigo kuli jye. Amahane yo mu rugo, Amahili y'ibisonga Ibyo byose bikoranye Ntibyatuma ngoheka Ndashaka kugenda. Ubwo ngubwo ndayoberwa Ngo mbure icyo musubiza Nti: genda uruhuke Ejo nzaba nkubwira Icyo nkeka kuli ibyo. Ati: ngiye kulyama Ndazinduka nkwibutsa Impamba nakwatse. II. Aragenda aralyama Nanjye ndana ku bwanjye. Ilyo joro sinagoheka Ndara mbunza imitima. Ngashaka igisubizo Nzabwira uwo mwana Ngasanga kigoye. Namwita igicucu Sinigeze nterura Ngo nshinge ibitaliho; Navugaga ibisanzwe. Ubu ngubu ninanga Ko agana mu mahanga Nkamwogeza cyane Ngo akunde angumire aho, Ndareba ngasanga Mba mwishe burundu, Akagira ngo ni mwiza, Akazapfa akigenza Uko yamye abishinga. Ngifinda uko nkwiye Kugenza ibyo ngibyo Mahero aba yaje. Ati: ndabona hakeye Ndakwibutsa ijambo Naraye nkubwiye. Nti: Mahero ko ubizi Ngukunda bikabije Urarwana ujya hehe? Iyo utuje ugakunda Ugaturana neza N'abitwa ababyeyi! Wabaye ukivuka, Inka yanjye yali imwe Irakunda iragorora Urakamirwa urabyibuha. Ntiwigeze usumbwa N'abinikije ijana. Mahero iyo umbereye Umwana uko nshaka Aho kunyaka ijambo! Amapfa ageze mu gihugu Nkurwanaho cyane Umuruho sinawumva Ngahaha ubutitsa Ngo akabili gatohe Utazaba uruzingo Nk'uwabuze abamurera. Mahero iyo umpaye Agahenge gatoya Nkakungura inama! Nateye n'ishyamba Ngo nugimbuka Washatse gushinga Urugo rukwizihiye Utazabura imbaliro Ukabura n'imiganda. Mahero iyo utuje Ugakulikiza neza Utunama nkugira! Imishike yaracitse Amafuni ararundwa, Ubwo mpinga ibijumba, Rubanda bakunda Kubyita ubukungu. Mba ngira ngo utazimwa Umukobwa wa Naka, Bagira ngo urashonje Ubukungu si bwinshi. Mahero iyo umfashije Tukiha agaciro Mu maso y'i Muhana! Ubu ingano nararunze, Ibigega biratemba. Ubwo ngira ngo abatindi Batagira amasambu Bagure ibyo mbahaye Jye ngwize amanoti Njye nkwambika neza. Mahero iyo umbwiye Amagambo anduhura Aho kunsha umugongo! Nateye urutoki Ngo niba zitetse Ujye utora agahihi Agahogo kabobere. Ubu inyuma y'igikali Ibitoki ni byinshi Bitembana inkingi. Ubu intabo zirarunze Ibibindi biroga. Mahero iyo ugumye aha Nkabona agakazana Aho kwicwa n'irungu Wagiye Bugande! Nta tungo natinye Ngo mare yo ubukungu Utazaba umutindi. Ihene ubu ni nyamwinshi Ziteretse amapfizi: Ruhaya na Sacyanwa. Mahero iyo umfashije Tukorora neza Amatungo tubyiruye! Kebuka urore amasake Yilirwa avuna sambwe Mu mivumu haliya! Inkokokazi ni nyinshi: Iz'inganda n'indayi Uzikunda zihuje Indilimbo z'urwunge, Ziteteza zitaha, Zihamagara izazo, Zitoye gahunda, Zisanga amaruka. Mahero iyo urebye Ibyo ntunze ugatuza Aho kunta mu malira! Uti: ngaho mpa impamba Ngucike njye ahandi Ducane dutane! Mahero iyo unyoheje Gukora mu ntagara Nkalyiroha mu nda Aho kwanga icyo mbyaye! Aho uruzi aba bana Bakureba ku jisho Bakabura icyo bavuga Kuko mukuru wabo Abacitse bamurora! Ili tuza likabije Likubajije icyo uli cyo Basubize utabeshya! Itegereze umubyeyi Wavunitse agutwite, Wavuka akakonsa, Agahinga aguhetse, Akavoma aguhetse, Agatashya aguhetse, Agateka aguhetse, Umulinde agahinda Ko kubura icyo abyaye Ngo alilire mu myotsi. III. Mahero arasohoka Asa n'ubuze ijambo. Akomeza imbere ye ajya ku irembo. Akebuka hepfo abona urutoke, Ubwo arakeberanya mu gikali, Abona imizinga ivuza ubuhuha. Ntiyahagarara ngo zitamwumva Zikamucengeza mo uruboli. Akebura intambwe ajya mu ikawa. Ubwo agasusuruko karababiliye, Ndetse akazuba karamukubise, Agumya kubunga agana agacucu. Muli iyo kawa y'isaso nyinshi Hakaba mo igiti gikuze neza, Cyarakabije kilizihirwa, Ururabo ruragwa hajya ibitumbwe, Bijya guhisha ntibyasigana Maze uwo mwana akibona bwangu, Yika bugufi ahina umugongo Agishyika mu nsi ahamara umwanya Amaso yombi arayagihanga, Umutima utekereza ibyo hilya. Ibyo namubwiye bigumya kuza Si ibihingwa si amatungo. Ubwo aliko akumva atameze neza, Imitima igakomeza kujya inama; Ibyo guta iwabo ngo ajye Bugande Yali yabyirukanye agisohoka, Maze kumwumvisha igikwiye. Icyamuvunaga ubwo ni ukuntu Aza kumbwira uko yigaruye. Ava mu ikawa alinanura. Acuma gatoya ananirwa igenda, Arahagarara aratekereza, Akazinga umunya agashima mu mutwe. Ngo byende ho akanya Ati: ndi imbwa bikabije. Arakabuza ati: ngiye Kubwira uwambyaye Ko kwigira icyohe Bikwiye undi utali jye. Ngo ngane ku irembo Duhura mva mu rugo. Dukubitanye amaso Aratinya arahumbya. Aho yavuze ikintu Yashakaga ko menya Ajya kwicara mu nzu. Jye nkomeza urugendo. Najyaga mu gacyamu Kugira ngo nduhuke Agahinda yanteye, Nganira n'abantu Batazi ibyo tulimo. Aho yagumye mu nzu Ngo ahamane n'abandi, Akeberanya mu cyanzu Yihina mu gikali. Ahakura agatebo, Ajya muli ya kawa Arasoroma aragwiza, Agatebo arakanaga. Ngo ngaruke nje kurora Uko byaje kugenda, Duhulira mu rugo Ahatura iyo kawa. Mbibonye ndashoberwa Nti: yumviye rwose, Agatima karagarutse Aragira ngo anyurure. Ngo mbure icyo mubwira Kugira ngo mushime, Mpamagara abatoya. Nti: ntabwo mureba Undi mwana uko agenza! Mulicaye mu nzu, Aravunika mumurora, Arakora mukalyama, Agatura uwe mulimo Umugono muwuhuruza! Nyina, we yali mu nzu Uko yakigunze Agahinda kamwishe. Arasohoka arareba Ati: mbese iyi kawa Yo iturutse ahagana he? Ubwo yibazaga abizi, Akagira ngo abone ubulyo Bwo kogeza umwana Watwumviye bwangu. Mubwirana ubwira Nti: ngaho muhembe Uyu mulimo ni munini. Ubwo twihina mu nzu Duterura akabindi Dushyira mu kirambi. Nti: ngaho Mahero Cyo ngwino uyibanze Ni wowe tuyikesha. Ati: ndanze kubanza Abakuru bakili aho. Nti: nta cyo bitwaye Iyo ali bo bakubwiye. Ayisoma yitonze Numva yiruhutsa. Igishyika kiratuza Amagambo arakunda Tunywa tuganira. Kuva kandi uwo munsi Mahero aba umwana Uyu wumvira rwose Wakorora ati: ndaje. Ntibyashyize kera, Musabira umukobwa Barwubaka neza Babyaranye kabili. Imibanire yabo, Rubanda babizi Babita mahwane. Iyo agana mu mahanga Aba ali imbwa mu zindi Aho kwicara nk'ubu Ngo aturane neza N'abatumye abyiruka. RUGAMBA Cyprien.

Ndagenda nikubita umutego, Nkiyesa imbere yanjye! Nsigaye nigendera ay'umucuko, Ndacuma akarenge! Nava mu gikali njya ikambere Imvura yose ikampitiraho! Nsigaye ndi umucuze nk'intozo Ni yo babona yashaje Bakayambura imisibo! Ndacyakora se iki Bahe banjye! Uru Rwanda ko ntaruhingamo sinahure, Singire n'intege zo gufata inkoni Ngo njye kwihakirwa bushumba, Uko murora, nzahereza he? Nabuze uw'incuti wanshorera Tukagenda umuseke ucyeya, Ngo antereze inzira ya Rutare, Ngo nsangeyo Rwabugili wahoze antunze, Maze rizarase ngeze mu bitwa bya Munanira! Ngo nimpinguka ambaze bwangu, At: "Uracyakora iki Nyarusaza, Ko watinze kunsanga ino?" Nti: "Ndi aho, singitarama ku manywa, Singitarama na nijoro: Lya jambo nahoze mfite liragatabwa!" KAGAME Alexis
  7. 07 MAREBE ATEMBAHO AMARIBORI Marebe atembaho amaribori Naramubonye agorora ikimero, Akebutse andetse ndoye icyo kibibi Cyamubimbuye mu buranga, Kikamurangiza mu gituza, Kikamutembera mu mukondo, Numva inkongi indemyemo ikome, Ikibatsi kimpama mu gihumbi Umutima uturagaramo igitutu. Nuko nterura ntazi iyo ndi Nti: Iyaguhanze ni yo izi kurema Ntiyaguciye umucuba na hato Ntiyahaho undi. Ni igicumbi gicuna ituze, Ni igicaniro cy'urukundo Yarugukwiza ho rukakotsa Ntunagakuke ngo urwikure, Ukarwitegereza ngo urwikure. Ukarwitegereza rugatwika, Uko umuririmba ugashya ururimbi, Ijuru rikimuka ukimurata. Uwavuga iby'urukundo Yamara icyumweru Atenze ho n'intango. Iyo aje agana uwo akunze, Ntukura ibirenge, Ushima mubiri ukeye Ntushirwe kumureba. Ntangira kumurabukwa Yaje akenyeye urwera, Kandi ubwe ari urwego, Nti: mureke iby'urwenya, Nogeze urwererane, Rwoga ijuru ry'u Rwanda. Impuha nizijure, Nta mpaka bangisha Impamvu ni ngo urebe! Si ikabya ryo guhimba Ni ihame ry'uwarebye Akishirira agahinda. Nguwo rugore rwera, Nguwo sata ibasumba, Nguwo umwari w'ishya, Nguwo uw'ishyoro ryaka. Ni ingeri y'amarere Ntagira amariburira, Nka bamwe bo mu gashungo Bamazwe n'amashamba, Bagumirwa n'ishaka Isharankima zigatoha. Ntasa n'abacubutse Bemeye ibyo gucudika Mu ngeso zo gucumura. Ntasa n'abishunga Bamazwe no gushinyika Nta shinya bigirira. Ntasa n'aba none Bamazwe n'indoto Nta ndoro bigirira. Ntasa n'intabire Zakuze zangirira. Ni uruti rw'umutarati Rwameze mu mutuzo Rwuhirwa n'umutozo. Ni ishami ry'umushibuko Ryera i Gashirabwoba Ryatonnye indasigariza Itoto rigwa umusubizo. Nta mpaka ntabira Uwabona anyijana Akangaya mu ijambo Yambaza iby'imvaho Navuga mvanguye Ibindi akivirira. Nziturira i Rwanda Aho amabega y'urwera Atumbagiza umurimbo Mu ijuru ry'umurere. Uwashinga ibyo yabonye Ku mushibuka utishanya Yasaza atabishoje. Ni indamutsa y'urukeye Ibambura urukerereza. Ni ishako y'urwamo Isuka impundu urwanaga. Ni ingoro y'urwererane Ndora isigiye n'u Rwanda. Ni inyanja ibumbiriye, Nta ngimbi iyigimba. Ni uruzi rw'igisaga Ntiruhungirwa n'isuri. Ni ishyoro rizira impiza Ryacuzwe n'impingane. Ni rushorezo rw'inyambo Ni inyange izira icyasha. Ni umugutu w'uruhira Uhimbaza inumbiri. Ni impundu z'umurangi Zikiranya n'insengo Zasobetse n'urugunda. Ni impinga izira impiza Ni ijuru rihizuye Asa n'impeshyi ihinduye. Ntakangwa n'ibihinda Yabihariye abahabuwe No guhaha ibyabahoza. Ni inanga izira inenge Igacurangwa ho ineza Mu nama z'urukundo. Ni impanzi y'urwego Nta rwango agira mu nda. Ni urudodo nararurazwe Ngo rurande ahaturitse Igihe ndwana n'amatiku Y'ibishaka kuntabika. Ni ishami ry'umutari Ryameze ku mutaba Rirakura riragara. Asa n'ingoma z'umugendo Zikiranya urugera Mu rugero rw'abasengo. Niba ari ku ruhimbi Ntuhuge kumureba Atonganya uwo mutozo Uranga ishya mu batunzi. Niba ari mu murere Umureke agumye aribore Yizihirwe n'iraba, Wogeze ururirimbo Wenda urenze umunsi Uzaba usukiwe mu rubu. Uwankiranura n'ibihinda, Akampa umwanya wo kumuhimba, Namuhera bugihumura, Umunsi ukira nkimuhugiye ho. Naramubonye avuga umurimbo Andabutswe atangira akaririmbo, Nsanze ari ihogoza ndatuza Nkomeza kumva umuhogo atunze. Uko nakarangamiye ibyo byiza, Nsuma wese mugwa mu byano, Nsanze ari ijuru ry'umwezi Nanjye mpimbira ho umwato Ni ko kumwita umwangakurutwa. Nsubiye mwita Marebe yera Kandi atemba ho amaribori. Ni umutako w'urutanisha Ni ubutijima bw'urukundo, Ni urukenyerero rw'inkindi, Nkunda inkesha ze z'umukwira. Ni uruhimbiro rw'abahanga Niba uhutiye ho agashungo Utazi inganzo irera amakombe Ntumukandire ho utamwica. Banza wirere ushyire kera, Ukeshe mu mvugo unoze cyane. Niba akinje iyo mu gikari Ntuhakandire utamukanga. Umureke acunde ubusoro kera Mu nda y'ibicuba by'Amagaju. Niba haruguru baguheje Ni uko asukiranya ibisabo. Utuze wumve uwo mususuruko Ukesheje urugo umusesure. Ntasa n'inshoberamahanga Zimwe zitabuze kuba inshibwa N'ubwo ari inshabizamudiho. Naramubonye nshira agahinda Umutima utangira kuvumera Ari urukundo ruwuvugisha. Mbonye akabije kuba urugwiro Igihe rihundagaye rirenze Nanjye nigaba mu nganzo Nkabya umugambi wo kumuhimba. Maze muhera ku mutwe iheru Ngira ngo ndengure ku birenge. Umusatsi wose ni umusana, Ni urugege ruzira ingingo Ni urugeregere rw'uburanga, Ni igisingizo cy'umudasumbwa. Agira uruhanga rw'uruhebuza, Nturuhanga ngo urashye uhumbya N'iyo uhungiwe n'amahindu Ahubwo uremera akaguhonda. Ingohe ze ni irangamutuzo, Ni uruterero rw'abatoya. Amaso ni urubera rw'inkesha, Kandi yuzuyemo ibinyonga Akarusha ay'inyana urunyenyeri. Izuru ni imbuga y'urutonde, Amatama yose itoto riragwa. Inseko ikeye umusanganya Ubonye ukwezi kubanduye. Naho urusizi rw'umususuruko Rusesuye imisaya yose. Amenyo ni inono izira inenge Ni amasimbi y'urubugurizo, Indoro ye ni uruhogozambyeyi, Imvugo ye ni umurebe w'impundu, Ingendo ni urugororangingo, Indeshyo ni ijuru ry'umurere, Umubiri wose ni ndebunyurwe. Amaboko yose ni imibanga Agira ibizigira by'ubukombe, Urutoki rwose ni urutunda Naho igituza cy'umutabonda Kiri mo urwogere rw'imitari. Imbavu ze ni imbandagihumbi, Ni imitende itatse indinda. Mu nda ni urutembanshyushyu Ni umurere warezwe n'inka Hose yitwa umwogabyano. Nahoze nkumbuye iby'urukundo, Nsanze ari ikome ry'urwunge, Nuko nitsa agatima mu nda. Inyange yariboye umusubizo Mu rukenyero imbibi ziraka Kandi ingondo zimugonyeye ho Zamurangije mu ngingo. Asa n'akabande ko mu mpeshyi Imbyeyi ishima igashira icyusa, Asa n'amarembo ataha amariza, Yakebye imongi ziramukwira Imbugu zitemba mu rwambariro. Shima umurerwa amaso ataruha. Asa na kiberinka y'umukwira Izuba ryinaze rijya mu gicu. Iyo wamubonye ukamuca iryera Uramuririmba ukarenza amanywa. Imbugu zitemba ibitugu byose Zamuteye ishya mu gituza Zigeze mu nda zirohoshya.

Narakubonye nkubura ikirizo N'abakubyaye wiga ikiramo. So yagushinze kuba ikirenga Uti: nzasumba urugero ampaye. Akuraze kuba impaza uti: ndi mparirwa. Uteze nka cya kirezi uriirimba Kiriza bose, umwe watuzonze Ngeri izigenga wiga ingendo. Icyo nagushimye singishibura, Simbishishikariye cyane, Simbishinjwa muri gacaca, Si ibishingano ni ibyanjye. Ndanga yuko nyirandabizi Yashibotoza ho agatanyu Akaguha umwambaro utitera Kandi utakenyera ngo ukwire. Nzaba nkwiharira nguharage Nguhunde amashyoro n'amakamba, Nguhamye inganzo zikumenyere, Nguhangarize ho rirenge, Nkuragize imivugo ikunderere Ijye ikuvumerera mu ruhanga, Ushinge icyimbo mu cya Shingu Ubwo uri nka shingiro ry'ituze. Uri mu ntambwe idatana na hato Uri mu nteruro itema ikirere Uri mu kirenge cy'uwa kirenga Ntabwo ureshya n'aba ndeba, Bamwe bavuka bavuga imirarwe Imirimo ari amacura-burindi. Wowe wabyirutse utamenya ikirega Ubanza nise ikirangirire. Ntusa n'ababyina basobanya Kuko basohoka basaragurika. Ntusa n'abasukiranya impundu Kandi nta mpuhwe imbere mu nda; Ntusa n'abakubiranya ikabuza Bameze nk'abakubwe n'urugendo; Ntusa nka bamwe bakoma akamu Barusha akayaga k'abashumba. Ntabwo ureshya n'abo ndeba, Ba muhonga-nseko bariya Birukanka biruhutsa Barira kandi bakaririmba Baguhanga bakanahumbya. Ibizira isano barabisobeka Bikabasibaniramo urusizi Ni nde utasara ngo asamare? Reka ngusingize uri isimbi Uri insigarira y'inseko nkunda Inkuru yakunzaniye iragwire. Bwari bwenze nko kugoroba Nti: reka ngoragoze ya nganzo, Nkebutse ninjira ingoro y'ishya Nomeza kogeza juru ryera Nseka abakinsaba kwisubira. Baransubiza batabizi, Singitashye mu rwo bataka Ubwo bateshejwe gutabaza Umwe wabatanze gutamiriza Urugore nsanga ruhunze umucyo, Ruhundaje ishya mu ruhanga Rwihuhiriye rya tuze Riteta amaso rita mu byano. Ndakuririmba barire n'ejo Ababona nsibana ngusiga iminwe Kandi bimariye ho isimbo Ngo barasizanira gutwara Umutima utigeze ubaha icyanzu. Emwe mundekere icyo cyaha Nzabe numva bansha icyiru Aho guta ikiruta nsanga ikivugwa. Umunsi nzesa inkoni y'impundu Nzasigura ntabizimurira Ko uzira icyangiro mu matwara, Ko uzira icyabyi uri cyanga-habi, Ko uzira icyanze na cya sinzi, Ko uzira icyusa na cyugazi, Ko uri icyuzuzo cy'intango.

Sinatangiriye abagenda; Sinashinze inkoto mu nzira; Sinambuye n'abahanju, Ngo uwanyaze agire ngo ndi n'icyaha, Nkwiye icyasha mu mutwe! Sinaciye mu iteka wagabanye, Ingoma yahamagaye abagabo, Umugaba nagira ati: "Genda utabare," Nti: "Genda uzihe abandi, Ndanze kuzitabarira!" Sinanywereye no gusinda, Ngo ntuke Umunyiginya wavutse kwa Gihanga, Nibagiwe Forongo[^1], ko yadutsindiye inka yaje! Sinatutse n'Umwega wavutse kwa Makara Nibagirwe ko yatubyariye ubukombe buhamye!

Ntiyanyagiye n'imyenda ngo ampimbire imanza mbi, Ngo nakunguranije ingumba magana atanu! Ntiyanyanze yarangabiye iz'intahira, Ngo natunguka mu irembo, Bati: "Aje gukuza aho yagabye birasanzwe!"

Ndavuga Rwogera na Ngarambe, Ndavuga Rwogana-ngabo rwa Ngoma ijana, Ndavuga u Rwanda ruguye imvura! Abanyamahanga baturusha amasuhuko, Tubarusha ibyiza. Tubarusha Umunyana wa Rusharaza, N'Umunyana wa Nyiri-ishema, Mushiki wa Nyamihirwa. Iyo ashengerewe mu ngombe, Ingondo ziramukana ibiririmbo, Zikagabana inshara, Zikikije incuti za bene Shaza, Ndavuga Biganza bigaba igaju, Nyina wa Mwiza nzamurata. Nyirampeta iyo murata simpunga, Iyo yampaye simara. Yangaburiye inda kw'irima ry'ibishyimbo; Ndayibumbatira nyigeza kw'ihera ry'amasaka. Rwirungu mu minyana Rwa Mabega ya Ngoga: Agira inzage avunya abakazana, Atereka intango uruta-nkanda: Mvuga amagambo y'intungane! Erega aho emwe, Tulira si umugani. Tulira ni umugore: Nzamurata buzima! Nzamutakirwa isaro mwaryi[^1], Nzamutuka insaro n'indira[^2]; Nzamurotera inzozi nziza, Ejo mu gitondo nzimuzanire. Nyiramutarutwa muka Macinya, Aruta ububutsi bw'ukuka butatu, Butanga ubutama bugatongana Ngw'ino mandwa yatemeye Ngilyi! Nikanze ibicumbeka, Ngirango ni ibicaniro: Nkuba impuzu ndicara! Za ntindi z'ubukoro, Z'ubuhembe bw'inkokote, Zakobotse ku matako, Zarwaye Nyamukuka, Zakobowe n'umukeno: Zirashyira zirataha! Bububana ubukorwa, Bajya kuzikura ubukaba! Uri mukuru muri bo, Ati: "Muraha iyi mandwa amata, Mugapfusha umwana umwe!" Undi muri bo aramburira, Ati: "Rwamukunya yabakuyemo umutima, N'aho bwakwira bakurya!" Nti: "Uratinye iry'abakuru!" Isoni zinkoba niruka, Nisura mu ntege, Nitahira intaho nzi, I Nyakayaga kwa bene Semugaza[^3], Nsanga banyiteguye Nta nteguza natumyeyo! Amarebe n'Amaraba zirashyira zirataha: Bazicanira imirama n'imirinzi, Bazisasira ibyarire, Bazihamagaza amazina! Mbirura nijuta! Nti: "Ubonye ba batindi, B'ubugumya, b'ubuguririza, Bamazwe n'ingugunnyi, Ba ndoro z'ibikona, Ba bikabara bikwabaje, Ba buguru bw'impembure, Ba butako buhenuka, buhengamye, Bwahwuhwa n'umuyaga Bukagenda uko mahera: Butaje kureba aho nsomera, Bagasasa bwa burago, Bw'uburavu n'ubuhivu, Bwizihiye za mfura!" Ni ibyo inkuru igira ikibara, Babibwira Nyirantawebasa nyina wa Mitima[^4], Ati: "Murumva ya mandwa ya Ndabarasa, Barayita indondogozi! Ko idakiranije ntivuge nabi, Mwebwe bene Kigeli mwayigera iki?" Bunguka inkamwa, nunguka intege: Ntambana irobe, mpinduka ibaba! Rwanyirajanja ihenga bwije, Iranjajanga ndajanjagurika, Amava-ziki ndazindazwa, ndazabiranywa; Njya mu bijunju iranjijibura! Mukwijana inzoka irajorora, Abapfumu bose barajibanirwa, Ngo ni indwara batijajara Amaso ahinda ubusinzirize, Amaguru ahinda ubugengera; Urutirigongo irarwahuranya, Igira mugabuzi iyigira ingombe, Igira iyo ngusho irashingishira, Igira bushati irakunkumura, Ikuba bukonya irakobanya, Ngo ni mukeba duharikanijwe, Intsinda impinduye inkokore! Ku gasusuruko ibonye ko mpoze, Ubwo yihutira kumpuhura! Ntakira abuguye na Mihunga, Aho nyine banga kuyimparira! Baza bose bahumiriza! Rwaka-migabo rwa koma-bagwe, Intambara izanye izakira soryo! Nti: "Ubwo mutabara muritonde, Mutagwa ku biti, nzayitanwa: Uwayitukiriye yaratanirije!" Bati: "Nimuhe iyo mandwa, Muyihe amavure, muyivurugire: Muyihe amavuta, muyikuze ivubwe, Nivururuka ibavuge neza!" Nzasaba Umututsi wanywereye ku nama, Akaba yarimaze inambu; Nsabe Umuhutu wihaye akiheka, Akihaza iby'isuka: N'umwiru urema ingoma se wa Mahata, Ntasumbwa ku isuku: Agira umwuko ungana ingashya, N'UMUBONANYA ubumbuje[^5], N'ameza abumbiriye. Nyakiyumbu yakuze akuze, Yinaga ivure, Azana amakame n'amakamure; Ati: "Nimuhe iyo mandwa, Yikize urukanyu ivanyei rukiga!" Agahutu ncancama, Kambona kagacancama, Kambara gakohoje, Gakora aya bukohore! N'agatutsi nzingiza, Kambona kakazingiza, Kakazura umugara, Kagira ngo ndaza iwe, Kandi u Rwanda ari rugari! Aya manywa bandinda, ni yo bahuraho; Izi nzira ngenda, Izi nzozi ndota, Iyi nzara nshonje, Iyi ngeso ingobotse, Iyi ngano yanjye, Ababona naje nkagenda ubusa, Baragira ngw'iki? Utakurusha incuti ntakurusha ingabo. Utakuzeye ntakuzimurira, Utakurusha umugore ntakurusha urugo; Utagira sange, asanga zihaze: Inda irimo urwango Yima uwa nyina: Nkanswe jyewe! Mbese mwaramutseho?

Aliko nta we unseka naragowe: Amagorwa sinayizaniye arasanzwe mu bagabo! None ndasumbilijwe, mvuna nkibyuka: Umbonere uwa none noye guhora nsekwa n'abaturanyi, Ngo ndusha rubanda gutira! Na wa muturanyi Kimonyo yansezereye nkibyuka, Ati: "Sinkwishingiye si jye shobuja, Niba Sebagangali atagushaka Urigumire mu kirago cyawe!" Rero Mpinga y'ubuhoro sinkiwuzindukana Ngo ndushye nywurengana impinga: Ndatambuka ugahinduka imishumi, Nanga kwiha ibiseko nkisutamira mu nzu! None Sebagangali nyambika noye kwambukirwa: Ndi mukuru nkaba umwambali wo kwa so, kwa Yuhi! Windeba undenza ingohe, Kandi uhora uhabwa umushahara! Yawumpaye ali umwe ndahakana! Nti: "Sebagangali wumpe uko wawutuwe, Ntugutera ubukene! Ntulibube utubije imvuba yawe!" Igisigo cya Sekarama ka Mpumba

  14. 14 UMUTAVU UCUTSE IGICUKU KINISHYE Ndumva impuruza irenga impinga, Impini yaturutse impande zose, Igumya guhorera mu mibande, Imihana yose yayisabitse, Ihasuka inkiko izira imiburo, Ngo rwa ruzi rw'igisaga, Ubu rwisenyuye mu mibande, Rusiba ibymbu ruziba ibyanzu. Ndumva n'umuyaga nyaruhuha Wirasaze mo nyaruhinda, Inkubi irabira mu bikombe Igakoma aheguka mu micyamu, Ikaza imponda ho inkuru ntazi. Inkuba zirivuga ibicu byose, Imirabyo inyuranya mo mu birere Iracicikana ica amahendo Yo kuducuza iducura ibyanzu. Ibyambu byagumiye izikuka, Izirusha izindi kuvuza ihembe, Ntizishaka guca amahendo. Zirata izindi kuri gahunda, Zirazihindira aho zihunga, Hamwe umuhengeri wiganje. Wa musenyi wo mu nkuka Ntugiseruka habe n'inkumbi. Ntaho wabonera n'inkombe, Amazi yihariye ibisiza, Abazi koga ni ugusanza, Imana yabarasana ho bwangu Ikazabegura ahunamuka. Abatitoje iby'iyo nkeke, Bose barasoma nkeri cyane, Iyo batazitswe n'inkengero, Badasogongeye ku muvumba. Agacu gatendetse mu kirere Kagumirije guca amarenga, Karahatamba gateshaguzwa, Nk'akataye inzira gasanzwe Kagira imbata iyo kadusura. Ubu kantaye umutego mu nda, Umutima urikora ndikanga, Mbunga ngana intebe nditeka, Uwo nateteshaga aranzonga, Nzunga nsetagura ibirenge, Mu rugo hose ndahazerera, Nkuba amakoni nk'uwikanga Intare imukubiye muri Rugege. Nabikomeje kuzengerezwa, Nsa n'umusinzi zihimuye Umaze gusabwa mo na muzunga. Ikirozi cyanzize mu gituza Umutima uzongwa n'isereri, Nseko y'urwera, sata iwutaha Inkuru imuturuka ho irantonda. Uri inyuma y'ijuru, juru ryanjye, ijisho ntabwo rimenya aho uri Iyo ryatambamiwe n'impinga Ihashya ibirunga kurenga ibihu. Jyewe ndose umutavu ucuka, Igicuku kinishye gicumukuruza, Gicura inkumbi icumu rihoga, Imyambi ihorera nk'uruhuri, Cyangwa umuyaga w'ishuheri. Ndose inkota yikubanga, Ndose ubuhiri bunembera , Ndose umutavu uvuka bwangu. Ngeze aho ndikora mu ntambwe, Ngo nze nywurinde ubutabere, Nsanga ntifite mu nteruro, Ndicara ubutama ndabutunda; Rimwe nditerera ku kiganza, Amaganya ambera ibiganiro, Ngumya gutongana imbere mu nda. Nayitonganije na Rurema, Yo yandengeje uyu mutaga Itaracyura umutavu mu nzu, Kandi izuba ryica ishashi, Nkanswe inshakirwa kuzisumba Ikigera mu nsi y'iyayibyaye. Uwansunutsa nk'ahagusanga, Nk'aho utereye uteze kuramya Uwakurangira inzira isumba Iyo kujya kwiroha mu rusuma. Nagusanganirana ubwuzu, Ugashira ubwambure ukizihirwa , Ubwo wankenyera ntube inkeho, Wanyitera ugatega neza, Ibitugu byanze gusetsa iminsi, Dore ko ishungana nk'ishaka Ko tuba inshike z'inshiramaroro. Uwagutereza mu birere Ngo maze amarebe akunshyikirize. Natega urugohe nkaguheka Ngo ejo udahindagara ku mabuye, Cyangwa ukishita ku mishubi Abanzi bashinze mu mayira. Nagutekerereza ibyiza Ibyago byenda bikarorera. Nagusiga iminwe y'impumdu Iminwa igahunda imivugo hose. Nagusingiza rikarenga, Ijoro rikeya nkiguha inkindi Y'ubasumbye uwo nsanzwe mbona. Sinkurota urahira cyane Ko icyo cyaha bahamya ababisha Uzira kucyumva uretse kucyiga, Nkanswe yenda kucyigana; Ko mu butoya umutima wawe Warezwe utera uta ku rukundo. Sinkurota uri mu miyonga, Umuyaga usanza umusatsi wawe, Wegamiye ibuye ry'umukomba Ryimye inkongi urukoba rwaryo. Sinkurota uririra hirya Mu nsi y'igiti cy'umubirizi Ibi by'abakobwa bihishira Ngo ababashunga batishima, Babona ukuntu ishavu ribica. Sinkurota urora mu cyoko, Ugira ngo cyezamitima cyawe Yaza ari inkuba y'amarere, Abanzi ukabata mu nkubara Ngo ubone inkunga yo kumusanga. Sinkurota uranga impinga, Impini yaciye igikuba hepfo Ngo nibatange Musaninyange, Nk'aho wigeze uba inyamaswa Yo gukskubwa mu mu muhigo! Mana ihanga abahunze umucyo, Igituma utererana abo utoye, Ukabata mu ngeri y'ikirenga, Utaretse byibura ngo ruhokwe Bavogere bace umuvumba! Reba rembo riseka neza, Imbere ritatse urusaro cyane, Inyuma ritembwa ho n'amasimbi, Narigutuye ryisukuye Kuko musigiye mu buranga. Mbwrra icyatumye urita hirya Nturihingutse ngo ndirebe Turamye twembi inzira iduhuje! Mbwira icyatumye ucurika ingohe Ari mu rugomba amaboko yawe! Mpa igihumurizo se ahubwo, Uti: Ari mu cyambu cyomokera ino! Niba ushaka kumpuzenza, Ngo uzantunguze impuhwe zawe, Zimpe none ndamye iyo neza, Uzaba untunguza indi migambi. Wibitinza ngitaka cyane, Ejo ntiterera mu rusuma Nabuze isimbi wandasaze. Aho uri hose muhoza mwiza, Ahubwo mpoze ibyo wampaye, Ngo ujye umuhorana ari mu ruhando, Kuko uruhanga rwe rugukwiye, Rutarota rurora ahandi Hatari mu ndiri y'urukundo. Iyi nkongoro ntayicuke, Nayimucenjemo bushumba Nawe ubwe arerura ati: ndashimye. RUGAMBA Cyprien
