Kirundi
Chorus:
Greetings our Burundi!
We greet you in the name of Jesus Christ
Leader hello…
Brothers and Sisters we greet you…

Many among us did not see you
But because of our parents we know you
Our Burundi we greet you
Our Burundi we send you these greetings

Greetings our Burundi!

Greetings Tanzania!
We greet you in the name of Jesus Christ
Leader hello…
Our friends we greet you…

We were refugees from Burundi
We fled to you
And you welcomed us
You also opened up the way for us to come to America
May our God Bless You
Greetings Tanzania!
We greet you in the name of Jesus Christ
Leader hello
Our friends we greet you.
Salamu
To our home we send a song of love and our greetings. And although many of us didn’t get the chance to see the land that our parents, grandparents, and so on were born and raised or where and how our traditions were developed we still love you Burundi and we still call you home. The stories that our parents tell paint beautiful and colorful picture of who and what you are. We say hello to the leaders and the ones we left behind.
Tanzania our second home, the place that most of us were born, we greet you as well. When we were refugees fleeing the horrible face of death, you took us in and you open the doors for us to come to America, our new home. To the leaders and to our friends in Tanzania we say we greet you say hello, thank you and may God bless you. We are who we are today because of you.
