فِي يَوْمٍ مِنَ الأَيَّامِ، كَانَ هُنَالِكَ تِمْسَاحٌ جَائِعٌ.
Once there was a very hungry crocodile.
Hapo zamani, palikuwa na mamba mwenye njaa.
كَانَ يَبْحَثُ عَنِ الطَّعَامِ بِبُطْءٍ وَهُدُوءٍ.
وَفَجْأَةً…
He searched for food slowly and quietly. And then…
Alitafuta chakula taratibu na kwa ukimya. Halafu…
طجججج!!! قَفَزَ التِّمْسَاحُ!
POW!!! The crocodile strikes!
POO!!! Mamba anashambulia!
لَمْ يَعُدْ التِّمْسَاحُ جَائِعاً بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ، بَلْ أَصْبَحَ سَعِيدًا.
After that he is no longer hungry, and he is happy.
Baada ya hapo hana njaa tena, na anafurahi.
إِلَى أَنْ يَجُوعَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى.
Until he gets hungry again.
Hadi atakapopatwa na njaa tena.
