Tarora, mwaki!
Look, fire!
Angalia, moto!
Mwaki nĩũcinaga
Fire burns.
Moto unachoma.
Mwaki nĩũrugaga
Fire cooks.
Moto unatumika kupika.
Mwaki nĩũtũheaga ũrugarĩ
Fire gives warmth.
Moto unaleta joto.
Mwaki nĩũtũheaga ũtheri
Fire gives light.
Moto unaleta mwanga.
Tarora, mwaki!
Look, fire!
Angalia, moto!
Mwaki nĩ mwega
Fire is wonderful.
Moto ni wa ajabu.
Na wĩ hinya.
And it is powerful.
Na una nguvu sana.
