Biba aho, haciyeho indi minsi, Burundu asanga Bwiza mu gikari n'amasimbi apfunyitse

y'intashyo za Gahindiro. Aramwegera bajya ukwabo, ati: "Ngizo intashyo za Gahindiro

Semutakirwa; ngo Mutahe cyane, ngo ariko itahe ni ubusa, ritabaye ubusa wamutashyeho

cyangwa nawe akagutahaho." Bwiza amaze kumva amagambo Burundu amubwiye, yipfundura

urunugi mu ijosi ararumuhereza, ati: "Ngiyi intashyo uzampere Gahindiro Semutakirwa

Semutambashakwe umwana w'i Mbirima na Matovu, ibusasangohe, ibuvomabagabo, umutware

w'i Bumbogo bwa Gatamba (Bumbogo bwa Gatamba ni umurenge wa Kigoma na Muyange mu

Nduga.)"

Nuko Burundu yakira urunigi Bwiza amuhaye. Amaze kurushyikira ajya aho Rugayi ari,

aramubwira, ati: "Nyagasani ndatashye ngiye kwirebera umugore n'abana!" Rugayi, ati: "Ese

uzagaruka ryari?" Burundu, ati: "Nimara kubonana n'umugore n'abana nzahera ko ngaruka."

Rugayi aramusezerera amuha n'intama ajyana. Buracya Burundu azindukira ku rugendo agaruka

i Rwanda. Ageze kwa Gahindiro Semutakirwa, bararamukanya. Amujyana ukwe, amwereka

urunigi rw'intashyo ya Bwiza, amubwira n'uko yamutumye. Ubwo butumwa bushimisha

Semutakirwa; bituma asubiza Burundu kwa Rugayi ikitaraganya n'izindi ntashyo z'imibavu.

Burundu aragenda. Agezeyo, imibavu y'intashyo arayihisha, ajya kwiyereka Rugayi

amumenyesha ko yagarutse. Rugayi aramushima, ati; "Koko urabangutse ntiwanyiciye

amasezerano."

Burundu amaze kuramukanya na Rugayi, ajya kubwira Bwiza ko yamuzaniye izindi ntashyo

z'imibavu. Undi arishima cyane, kuko iyo yari yarashatse ntayahabaga muri icyo gihe;

bagombaga kuyigura mu Rwanda. Ubwo amuha umuntu ujya kuyimuzanira rwihishwa. Hashize

iminsi, Bwiza arosa; ashaka amadahamo (imbiribiri) ayaha Burundu, ati: "Ngutumye kuri

Gahindiro, Semutakirwa, umwana w'i Mbilima na Matovu, ibusasabagore ibuvomabagabo,

umutware w'i Bumbogo bwa Gatamba; uti: "Ngizo intashyo mwana wa se na sebukwe, uti:

"Ariko itahe ni ubusa; ritabaye ubusa wamutashyeho!"

Burundu ahindukira arira inzira kuyimara, ashishikariye gushyikiriza Semutakirwa intashyo

Bwiza amwoherereje. Arazimushyikiriza, amaze kuzibona arishima cyane. Na none aha Burundu

izindi ngo ashyire Bwiza: amuha amahembe atatse, n'ubusasa, n'ibyanganga; ati: "Genda kandi

ntuzongere kugaruka mu Rwanda uzagumeyo kugeza igihe tugarukanira twembi na Bwiza; ariko

hagati aho nzajya ngutumaho abandi batwa bene wanyu, kugira ngo menye ibyawe na Bwiza aho

bigeze!" Burundu asubira i Burundi. Amaze kugerayo yereka Bwiza intashyo za Gahindiro,

amubwira n'ubundi butumwa. Bwiza amaze kuzibona arishima cyane kuko zari ibyiza Abarundi

batagira.

Nuko kuva ubwo, Burundu aguma i Burundi mu bunetsi; agumana na Rugayi n'umugore we

Bwiza. Haciyeho iminsi Gahindiro yohereza undi mutwa guhakwa na Rugayi ariko amwohereza

ari intumwa atumye kuri Burundu, ngo ayimenyeshe aho ibye na Bwiza bigeze. Umutwa

aragenda akeza Rugayi kwa kundi kwa Burundu; we ndetse agasetsa bitambutse ibya Burundu.

Bineza Rugayi kuko abonye abatwa babiri bo mu Rwanda basetsa. Umutwa abonana na mwene

wabo, na we amushyikiriza Bwiza, ati: "Nguyu mwene wacu, yaje kubaza aho tugejeje

amagambo!"

Dore ko Burundu yagiye ajya kureshya. Bwiza atuma uwo mutwa kuri Gahindiro, ati: "Ugende

umumbwirire, uti: "Uzaze uhetswe wiyita mukuru we w'umugore, ntibazakumenya." Umutwa

agaruka mu Rwanda asezeye nka Burundu. Rugayi amuha intama arataha. Araza abwira

Gahindiro ubutumwa. Abwumvise buramuneza. Ahera ko akoranya abatwa be n'abagaragu

bazajyana; ariko bake. Abatwa bagenda bamuhetse yitwikiriye akarago nk'umugore. Bamanuka

amayaga ya Kinazi, bambuka Nyabarongo, bomokana u Bugesera, basingira u Burundi bwo kwa

Rugayi ku kirengarenga. Bahageze basanga Rugayi yagiye guhiga. Ingobyi bayinjiza mu rugo

bayururukiriza mu kirambi. Gahindiro ajya ku buriri aramukanya na Bwiza. Bategeka abaheza

kugira ngo abonane na mukuru we. Bose barasohoka, bibwira ko uwo mushyitsi ari mukuru wa

Bwiza w'umugore koko.

Nuko Gahindiro aratangira yiganirira na Bwiza baba iyo! Rugayi arashyira arahiguka. Ageze ku

irembo abona abatwa baje bahetse. Ababaza aho baturuka. Bamubwira ko baje bahetse muramu we. Yumvise ko yagenderewe na muramu we arishima. Ajya mu nzu yicara ku rwuririro

aramukanya n'uwiyita muramu we. Ariko bakaramukanya Gahindiro ahina. Bimaze akanya

Bwiza abwira Rugayi, ati: "Turaguheje, jya ku irembo twigire mu gikari kuganirirayo; kandi

ndagusaba n'uko twiraranira tugashirana urukumbuzi."

Rugayi arabyemera; ajya ku irembo, Gahindiro na Bwiza bajya mu nzu yo mu gikari

baganirirayo. Ubwo Gahindiro yagiye yitwikiriye akarago. Birirwa baganirira iyo, bwije

barararana. Ku munsi wa kabiri bajya inyuma y'inzu kwota akazuba, nanone Gahindiro asohoka

yitwikiriye akarago. Umuja wa Rugayi witwaga Nyirabunjagali arabukwa amaboko ye;

arayitegereza asanga ari nk'ay'umugabo. Ku munsi wa gatatu yongera kuyitegereza, ajyana

Rugayi ukwe aramubwira, ati: "Uriya muntu bita muramu wawe w'umugore, jye nabonye afite

amaboko asa n'ayafoye umuheto!" Rugayi aramutwama, ati: "Genda; dore ko usa n'umusazi!"

Ibyo umuja amubwiye abita i Burenga ahubwo ajya kubwira Bwiza, ati: "Ndagusaba kuryamana

na muramu wanjye!" Bwiza, ati: "Sinanga, ariko ejo uzazindukane n'abagaragu bawe mujye

guhiga, tubone uko tukwitegura muzararane." Rugayi aranezerwa, arabyemera. Ararika abahigi

n'abagaragu bayirara ku ibaba. Imisambi ya mbere ihize, bakora ku mbwa, rubanda rumwomaho,

ntihagira usigara mu rugo, uretse Bwiza na Gahindiro n'abantu be, na Nyirabunjagali

n'abakwobwa b'abaja.

Rugayi agitirimuka aho, Bwiza bamunagurira mu ngobyi yaje ihetse Gahindiro. Bashyira nzira

shishi itabona, bambuka Akanyaru, basingira u Mugina wa Jenda na Kabugondo. Hagati aho,

dore ko nta nkuru ibura kibara, bati: "Wa mutwa yahekesheje Bwiza ari kumwe n'umugabo

muremure!" Rugayi akomaho agatima, yibuka ijambo rya Nyirabunjagali umuhigo arawuta

yiruka amasigamana, ageze iwe asanga harihamagara, wa muja ari we urwikungamo. Abwira

Rugayi ati: "Yagiye Burundu na Bwiza bwawe! kandi aho nakenze icyazanye Burundu mu rugo

umu, akirirwa aseka na Bwiza!" Yamugutwaye Semutakirwa! Ubwo Rugayi n'abe bashyira nzira

bakurikira ikirari. Bageze ku Kanyaru babona ingobyi irarembera ku Mugina wa Jenda na

Kabugondo. Rugayi arayireba arashoberwa, umuheto we awushyira ku ivi arawuvuna

awujugunya mu ruzi, nawe yirohamo ariyahura; apfa atyo.

Nuko kuva ubwo abantu badukana imvugo, ngo: "Yagiye Burundu na Bwiza!" Buhoro buhoro

uko ibihe biha ibindi, 'na Bwiza' babikuraho, hasigara "yagiye burundu" yonyine; ari byo

kugenda mahera. Ikigiye ubutagaruka cyose, bati: "Cyagiye burundu." Igikozwe bidasubirwaho,

bati: "Cyuzuze burundu." Ugiye rwose bakaziguruka, bati: "Yagiye burundu!" Nk'uko Burundu

yagiye mahera acikishije Bwiza.

Kugenda burundu = Kugenda mahera.
