Moyo wangu ulimvwa zyintu zyinji.

My heart feels a lot of things.

Umutima wandi ulomfwa ifintu ifingi.


Ndilamvwa kabotu akukkomana baneene batwaanina twaano masiku.

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

Ndatemwa nga bamaama baleetushimikila utushimi ubushiku.


Ndilimvwa kwaanguluka kuti kandisobana amweenzuma.

I feel silly when I play with my friend.

Ndomfwa ukusaamwa nga ndeyangala no munandi.


Ndilimvwa kuusa kuti bataata bandaambila kuti tabajisi mali.

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

Nshumfwa bwino bataata nga batiila tabakwete indalama.


Ndilimvwa kuyandwa kuti baama bandikumbata.

I feel loved when my mom gives me a hug.

Ndomfwa ukutemwikwa nga bamaayo bankumbatila.
