«Ndatega zivamo!» ni umugani wamamaye mu Rwanda, ucibwa n'umuntu umaze kugira intege nke.

Waturutse ku mugabo witwaga Ntambabazi ya Rufangura, akaba yari atuye mu Bitagata bya Muganza i Rukoma (Gitarama), ahagana mu mwaka w' i 1600.

Ntambabazi uwo yari umuzigaba; yimuka mu Bwanacyambwe i Ruhanga na Mbandazi, ajya gutura i Rukoma mu Gishubi cya Muganza ahitwa mu Bitagata.

Yakundaga gutega inyamaswa, impu zazo akazijyana ibwami, cyane cyane iz'ingwe.

Uwo mwuga Semugeshi arawumushimira bituma amugororera, amugira umunyamuhango wo gutura impu z'ingwe.

Ntambabazi amaze kuba umunyamuhango, akoranya bene wabo arabibabwira, bose baba abatezi b'ibwami.

Aba umutoni cyane kuri iyo ngoma ya Semugeshi.

Semugeshi amaze gutanga, ariko Ntambabazi akiri umutoni, hima Kigeli Nyamuheshera.

Icyo gihe Ntambabazi yari amaze kuba umusaza, na none agumya gutura izo mpu z'ingwe, ariko ubutoni buragabanuka.

Bene wabo babonye ko atakiri umutoni bajya kumuhakanwa ibwami bashaka kugabana ubutware bwe ndetse n'inka yagabanye hamwe n'ingororano yahawe.

Batangira kwanga kujya batega kugira ngo Ntambabazi nabura impu zo gutura ibwami, bizamuviremo icyaha cyo kunyagwa.

Nuko kuva ubwo, Ntambabazi yababwira bakabyanga.

Impu zimaze kubura, ibwami baramutumira, baramutonganya bamubaza igituma atagitura impu.

Ababwira ko bene wabo bamugandiye.

Ibwami barabatumiza, bababaza icyatumye bigira ibigande kuri Ntambabazi, bakanga gutega inyamaswa.

Abandi bireguza ko Ntambabazi ababeshyera, bati: "Ntabwo atubwira, ahubwo ni we wabyanze gusa."

Ibwami bongera gutonganya Ntambabazi baramwirukana na bene wabo, ngo bajye kuzana impu igitaraganya.

Bageze iwabo mu Bitagata, Ntambabazi ababwiye kujya gutega bararicurika baramwangira.

Ubwo bategaga mu Gisizi kuri Nyabarongo.

Haciyeho iminsi, Ntambabazi agira ubwoba, arasindagira gisaza, ajya mu Gisizi gutega ingwe; agenda wenyine kuko yari inshike nta kana agira.

Agezeyo, ashaka igiti cy'amaboko aragishinga.

Akigonze kiramunanira, apfa kujenjeka arataha.

Bukeye aza gusura umutego we.

Ahageze asanga ingwe yaguyemo ariko irawujyana kuko utari ukomeye watezwe n'umunyantege nke.

Ubwo ibwami nanone bamutumaho ngo bamubaze aho yahejeje impu.

Agezeyo baramutonganya, ndetse noneho baranamukubita.

Inkoni zimuriye, ati: «Nimundeke njye kuzizana»! Ariko byari ibyo gutakamba nta zo yari afite.

Baramurekura, bati : «Genda uzizane vuba!» Aragenda.

Abuze uko agira, yongera gusubira mu ishyamba; atega kwa kundi, na none ingwe iguyemo irawujyana.

Asubiyeyo ntiyagira icyo ahasanga, ati : "Ngiye ibwami mbabwize ukuri nibashaka banyice!"

Aragenda n'ibwami; agezeyo akoma yombi, ati: "Nyagasani, ndatega zivamo; nateze ingwe ku ngoma ya so Mutara nkiri muto, aratanga ndasigara; none dore ndi umusaza kandi w'inshike; nta ntege nkigira na bene wacu banze kumfasha; ngerageza gutega ingwe zikavamo, umutego zikawujyana."

Ubwo bagenzi be bahakanye babwira Nyamuheshera bati: «Nyagasani twabyirukanye na so, Ntambabazi uyu araturuta ubukuru, none si ukwangirira».

Bati: «Ntabwo yashinga umushibuka wo gufata ingwe n'imbaraga zayo uzi!»

Kuva ubwo Nyamuheshera aramureka, atumira bene wabo, aba ari bo ategeka gukomeza uwo muhango wabo wo gutega no gutura impu z'ingwe.

"Gutega zivamo = Kunanirwa umurimo kubera intege nke."
