Waan la ordi karaa.

I can run with it.

Ninaweza kukimbia nao.

Waan la boodi karaa.

I can jump with it.

Ninaweza kuruka nao.

Waan la niikin karaa.

I can dance with it.

Ninaweza kucheza nao.

Waan la dabaalan karaa.

I can swim with it.

Ninaweza kuogelea nao.

Waan la gambin karaa.

I can skip with it.

Ninaweza kuruka kamba nao.

Waan la darbeyn karaa.

I can kick with it.

Ninaweza kupiga mpira nao.

Waan la baxsan karaa.

I can escape with it.

Ninaweza kutoroka nao.

Lakin marna lama duuli karo.

But I can never fly with it.

Lakini siwezi kupaa nao angani.
