Bona, mulilo!

Look, fire!

Mona, umulilo!

Mulilo wa cisa.

Fire burns.

Umulilo ulooca.

Mulilo wa apeha.

Fire cooks.

Umulilo ulabomba mukwipika.

Mulilo wafa mufutumala.

Fire gives warmth.

Umulilo ulapeela icikabilila.

Mulilo wafa liseli.

Fire gives light.

Umulilo ulapeela ulubuto.

Bona, mulilo!

Look, fire!

Mona, umulilo!

Mulilo ki womunde.

Fire is wonderful.

Umulilo usuma.

Hape unani mata.

And it is powerful.

Elyo kabili walikwata amaka.
