Lukkuu fi Dhimilleen hiriyota turan. Garu yeroo hundaa waldorgomuu. Gaftokko kubbaa milaa taphachuufu enyu akka cimaa ta’ee baruu barbadan.
Chicken and Millipede were friends. But they were always competing with each other. One day they decided to play football to see who the best player was.
They went to the football field and started their game. Chicken was fast, but Millipede was faster. Chicken kicked far, but Millipede kicked further. Chicken started to feel grumpy.
They decided to play a penalty shoot-out. First Millipede was goal keeper. Chicken scored only one goal. Then it was the chicken’s turn to defend the goal.
Chicken was furious that she lost. She was a very bad loser. Millipede started laughing because his friend was making such a fuss.
Lukkuun gara malee aarte afaan ishee bantee Dhimillee liqimsitee.
Chicken was so angry that she opened her beak wide and swallowed the millipede.
Yeroo gara mana ishe deemitu, lukkuun harmee Dhimillee kara irrati qunamtee. Hatii Dhimilleenn akkan jettee gaafate, “Mucaa kiyaa agartee?” Lukkuun homaa hinjenne. Harmeen Dhimillee bayee yaddee.
As Chicken was walking home, she met Mother Millipede. Mother Millipede asked, “Have you seen my child?” Chicken didn’t say anything.
Mother Millipede was worried.
Then Mother Millipede heard a tiny voice. “Help me mom!” cried the voice. Mother Millipede looked around and listened carefully. The voice came from inside the chicken.
