Kwedin’ga in’gandu wanzala.
Once there was a very hungry crocodile.
Kwaliko Iŋwena iyali ne nsala saana.
Wedin’ga nakuke’nga yakudya chovu-chovu muwumwenena. Henohu …
He searched for food slowly and quietly. And then…
Yaaleefwaya ifyakulya mumutalalila ukwabula ukupanga icongo. Elyo nomba…
POWU!!! Inga’ndu nakwati!
POW!!! The crocodile strikes!
Wiyu!!! Iŋwena yaikata icakulya!
Kufumohu inzala yinamani kaha nawa nazan’galali.
After that he is no longer hungry, and he is happy.
Panuma yakulya, Iŋwena yaikuta kabili yasansamuka.
Champi natiyi inzala chen’gi.
Until he gets hungry again.
Mpaka yaumfwa insala na kabili.
