Tala, kakahya!

Look, fire!

Mona, umulilo!

Kakahya nakepuka.

Fire burns.

Umulilo ulooca.

Kakahya keji kuteleka.

Fire cooks.

Umulilo ulabomba mukwipika.

Kakahya keji kuneha liyena.

Fire gives warmth.

Umulilo ulapeela icikabilila.

Kakahya keji kuneha musana.

Fire gives light.

Umulilo ulapeela ulubuto.

Tala kakahya!

Look, fire!

Mona, umulilo!

Kakahya kamwaza.

Fire is wonderful.

Umulilo usuma.

Kaha katwama nangolo.

And it is powerful.

Elyo kabili walikwata amaka.
