Tala kakahya!

Look, fire!

Mona, umulilo!

Kakahya kakuwema.

Fire burns.

Umulilo ulooca.

Kakahya kechi kuteleka.

Fire cooks.

Umulilo ulabomba mukwipika.

Kakahya kechi Kuhana kuzuma.

Fire gives warmth.

Umulilo ulapeela icikabilila.

Kakahya kechi kuhana mweji.

Fire gives light.

Umulilo ulapeela ulubuto.

Tala kakahya!

Look, fire!

Mona, umulilo!

Kakahya kamwaza.

Fire is wonderful.

Umulilo usuma.

Kaha cheka kakalemu.

And it is powerful.

Elyo kabili walikwata amaka.
