Jowani ono alina banina be mukaaga.
Abazaire be baamugha akasuwa.

Akenda inho.
Lwali lulala, mwaninha yaamenha akasuwa ke.
Jowani yali tasobola kukola kandi.

Yaalira! Yaalira!
Jowani yaalumuka.

Yaaniina omuti.
Abazaire be baamwagaana. "Ika ghansi," baamwegayirira.
Baaninha boona baayemba, "Ika ghansi."
Jowani yaatandiika okwemadulira ku lwembo.
Ighe Jowani aika. "Ika ghansi," yaayemba.
Mikwano gya Jowani gya yemba okutuusa bwe yaika okuva ku muti.
Agho bairayo bombi eka.
Buli muntu yaasanhuka inho era Jowani yaafuna akasuwa akayaaka.
