Ku muzhi munshi ya mutumba wa Kenya kumusela wa Afrika, mwanyike wa mukazhi waingilanga mu majimi na bainainji. jizhina janji wajinga Wangari
In a village on the slopes of Mount Kenya in East Africa, a little girl worked in the fields with her mother. Her name was Wangari.
Mu mushi waba mumbali ya lupili lwa Kenya ku kabanga mu Africa, umukashana umwaice aalebomba na banyina mwibala. Ishina lyakwe aali ni Wangari.
Wangari watemenwe bingi pangye. Aye watemenwe kujima mu majimi. Kabiji wabyajile ne nkunwa mu mushiji.
Wangari loved being outside. In her family’s food garden she broke up the soil with her machete. She pressed tiny seeds into the warm earth.
Wangari alitemenwe ukusangwa panse. Aaleimbaula umushili no lupanga mwibala lyabo. Aabyele utuseke utunoono mu mushili wakabilila.
Kimye kyajuba kyo atemwishe ke kimye kya kuzhika juba. Inge pauba mfishi kabiji ke akankalwe kumona bijimwa popo wakanganga amba ke kimye kya kuya ku nzubo. Wapitanga mu jishinda ja kaloolo pakachi ka majimi saka abuka mikola.
Her favourite time of day was just after sunset. When it got too dark to see the plants, Wangari knew it was time to go home.
She would follow the narrow paths through the fields, crossing rivers as she went.
Inshita aatemwishishe ya cungulo lilya akasuba kaawa. Wangari aaleinukafye nga cakuti kwafiita saana icakuti umuntu tekuti amone ifimenwa. Pakuya aaleepita mu kashila katondo mu mabala no kuciluka imimana.
Wangari wajinga mwanyike wa jimuka bingi kabiji wakebeshe bingi kutendeka sukulu. Pano mino bainanji ne bashanji bakebeshe bingi amba ekalenga pa nzubo saka eba kwashako mingilo panzubo. Byoaikele nemyaka yakusemwa itaanu ne ibiji, kolojaji wamulume wakambizhe ba nsemi amba atendeke sukulu.
Wangari was a clever child and couldn’t wait to go to school. But her mother and father wanted her to stay and help them at home.
When she was seven years old, her big brother persuaded her parents to let her go to school.
Wangari aali mwana uwacenjela kabili aaleefwaisha ukuya ku sukulu. Nomba bawishi na banyina baaleefwaya ukuti aleikalafye pa ŋanda no kubaafwa imilimo. Ilyo aafikile pa myaka yakufyalwa cine-lubali, ndume yakwe umukalamba aalandile na bafyashi basuka basuminisha Wangari ukuya ku sukulu.
Watemenwe bingi kufunda! Wangari wafunjile byavula pa buku yense yeatangile. Waubilenga bingi bulongo ku sukulu kabiji ba mwichile kuya na kufunda ku kyaalo kya Amerika. Wangari wasekejile bingi! Wakebeshe bingi kuyuka byavula bya muntanda.
She liked to learn! Wangari learnt more and more with every book she read. She did so well at school that she was invited to study in the United States of America.
Wangari was excited! She wanted to know more about the world.
Aalitemenwe ukusambilila! Muli lyonse ibuuku aleebelenga aleesambililamo ifipya. Aalibombele bwino saana mu masambililo icakuti baalimwitile ukuya mu kusambilila ku caalo ca United States of America. Wangari aatemenwe icibi! Aaleefwaya ukwishibilapo ifingi pesonde.
Pa sukulu mukatampe wamu Amerika, Wangari wafunjile bintu bipya byavula bingi. Wafunjile pa bijimwa nebyo bikoma. kabiji wavulukile ne byo akomenenga kukaya bisela na bamakolojaji babalume mu fimfutele bya bichi mumasaka awama amu kyaalo kya Kenya.
At the American university Wangari learnt many new things. She studied plants and how they grow. And she remembered how she grew: playing games with her brothers in the shade of the trees in the beautiful Kenyan forests.
Wangari aalisambiliile ifintu ifingi ifipya pa sukulu lyapa muulu mu America. Aasambilile palwa fimenwa nefyo fikula. Aaleibukisha nefyo aaleekula: ukwangala ifyangalo na bandume yakwe mu cintelelwe ca miti ya mpanga iisuma mu Kenya.
Byo apitaizhe kufunda popo ayukile amba watemenwe bingi bantu bamukyalo kya Kenya. Aye wakebeshe bingi amba bekale basangalala kabiji ba kasuluka. Byo apitaizhe kufunda wafulukishe bingi ne ku muzhi wanji ku Africa.
The more she learnt, the more she realised that she loved the people of Kenya. She wanted them to be happy and free.
The more she learnt, the more she remembered her African home.
Ilyo aaleeya aleesambilila, aatampile ukwiluka pafyo aatemenwe abantu bamu caalo ca Kenya. Aaleefwaya ukuti babe ne nsansa no buntungwa. Cilya aleeya alesambilila, ukufuluka ku mwabo ku Africa nako kwalekulilako.
Panyuma ya kupwisha lufundo lwanji, wabwelele ku Kenya. Wataine kyaalo kyanji kya pimpulwa. Wataine ma faamu akatampe ajimiwa muntanda. Bainetu kechi bajipo nakwakutana nkunyi ya kubanza mijilo ya kutekelapo ne. Bantu bayanjile kabiji ne baana bajinga na nzala.
When she had finished her studies, she returned to Kenya. But her country had changed. Huge farms stretched across the land. Women had no wood to make cooking fires. The people were poor and the children were hungry.
Panuma yakupwisha amasambililo, aabwelele ku Kenya. Nomba aasangile icaalo cakwe calicinja. Kwali amabala ayakulu nganshi panga yonse. Banamaayo tabaakwete inkuni sha kukosesha umulilo. Abantu baali abapiina abaana nabo baali ne nsala.
Wangari knew what to do. She taught the women how to plant trees from seeds. The women sold the trees and used the money to look after their families. The women were very happy. Wangari had helped them to feel powerful and strong.
Wangari aalishibe ifyakucita. Aafundile banamaayo ifyakubyala imiti ukubomfya imbuto. Banamaayo baalishitishe imiti no kubomfya ulupiya mu kusunga indupwa shabo. Banamaayo balitemenwe nganshi. Wangari alyafwile abantu ukumfwa ukuti nabo baali na maka kabili abakosa.
Pakupitapo kimye, bichi bipya bya komene ne kwikala ke jisaka kabiji ne mikola ya tendekele kupita jikwabo. Sabwakya wakwa Wangari waile nkuwa mu Afrika yense. Lelo, biumbi ne biumbi bya bichi byajimwa kufuma ku nkunwa yakwa Wangari.
As time passed, the new trees grew into forests, and the rivers started flowing again. Wangari’s message spread across Africa. Today, millions of trees have grown from Wangari’s seeds.
Mu kuya kwa nshiku, imiti iipya yalikulile no kusanguka impanga, na meenshi mu mimana yatampile ukupita. Imbila yakwa Wangari yalisalangene mu Africa yonse. Pali Ieelo, imiti imintapendwa yaalikula ukufuma ku mbuto shakwa Wangari.
Wangari waingijile na ngovu. Kabiji ne bantu ntanda yense bamwene mingilo yanji kabiji ne ku mupa kilambu kyaile nkuwa kabiji wajinga inetu mutanshi mu Afrika kutambula kino kilambu.
Wangari had worked hard. People all over the world took notice, and gave her a famous prize. It is called the Nobel Peace Prize, and she was the first African woman ever to receive it.
Wangari alibombeshe saana. Abantu isonde lyonse balyumfwile pa milimo yakwe no kumupeela icilambu icaishibikwa saana. Baaciita ukuti Nobel Peace Prize mu Cingeleshi, emukuti Icilambu ca Cibote, kabili ewali namaayo uwantanshi mu Africa ukupoka ici cilambu.
