Pilu yaka inani maikuto amañata.

My heart feels a lot of things.

Umutima wandi ulomfwa ifintu ifingi.


Niikutwanga tabo bo kuku abalukandekelanga makande manzibwani.

I feel happy when my granny tells us stories in the evening.

Ndatemwa nga bamaama baleetushimikila utushimi ubushiku.


Niikutwanga bukuba ani bapalanga ni mulikanaka.

I feel silly when I play with my friend.

Ndomfwa ukusaamwa nga ndeyangala no munandi.


Niikutwanga bumaswe bo ndate ababulela kuli abana masheleñi.

I feel bad when my dad says he does not have money.

Nshumfwa bwino bataata nga batiila tabakwete indalama.


Niikutwanga kulatiwa boma abani kumbatelanga.

I feel loved when my mom gives me a hug.

Ndomfwa ukutemwikwa nga bamaayo bankumbatila.
