Andiswa waxay daawatay wiilal kubadda cagta ciyaarayo. Waxay rajeysay in ay awoodi laheyd in ay ku biirto ayaga. Waxay weydisay tawabaraha in ay tawabar laqadani karto ayaga.
Andiswa watched the boys play soccer. She wished that she could join them. She asked the coach if she can practise with them.
Andiswa alikuwa anawaangalia wavulana wakicheza mpira wa miguu. Alitamani kujiunga nao. Akamwomba kocha kufanya nao mazoezi.
Tawabaraha gacmihiisa ayuu saartay simihiisa. “Isuulkan, wilasha kaliya ayaa loo ogolyahay in ay ciyaaraan kubada cagta”, ayuu yidhi.
The coach put his hands on his hips. “At this school, only boys are allowed to play soccer,” he said.
Kocha akaweka mikono kiunoni. “Kwenye shule hii, ni wavulana pekee wanaoruhusiwa kucheza mpira wa miguu,” alisema.
Wiilasha ayaa u sheegeen in ay aado oo ay ciyaarto kubada gacanta. Waxey dhaheen kubadda gacanta waa gabdhaha Kubadda cagta na waa wilasha. Andiswa waa ay ka xumaatay.
The boys told her to go play netball. They said that netball is for girls and soccer is for boys. Andiswa was upset.
Wavulana walimwambia aende kucheza mpira wa wavu. Walisema mpira wa wavu ni kwa ajili ya wasichana na mpira wa miguu ni kwa wavulana. Andiswa alijisikia vibaya.
The next day, the school had a big soccer match. The coach was worried because his best player was sick and could not play.
Siku iliyofuata, shule yao ilikuwa na mashindano makubwa ya mpira wa miguu. Kocha alikuwa na wasiwasi kwa kuwa mchezaji wake wa kutegemewa alikuwa mgonjwa na asingecheza.
Andiswa waxa ay ku oroday tawabarihi waxa ayna ka bariday in uu u ogolaado ciyaarta. Tawabaraha ma uusan hubin wax uu sameeeyo. Kadib waxa uu goaansaday in Andiswa ku biiri karto kooxda.
Andiswa ran to the coach and begged him to let her to play. The coach was not sure what to do. Then he decided that Andiswa could join the team.
Andiswa alimwendea kocha na kumuomba kumruhusu acheze. Kocha hakujua afanye nini. Akaamua kumruhusu Andiswe ajiunge na timu.
Ciyaarta waxa ay aheyd mid adag. Qofna gool ma dhalinin ilaa kala badhki waqtiga ciyaarta.
The game was tough. Nobody had scored a goal by half time.
Mchezo ulikuwa mgumu. Hakuna timu yoyote iliyokuwa imefunga goli hadi muda wa mapumziko.
Waqtigi qeybta labaaad ee ciyaarta mid kamid ah wiilashi ayaa Andiswa u gudbiyay kubaddi. Waxay ugu dhaqaaqday si degdeg leh xagi birta goolka. Si adag bey u laaday kubbadi waa ayna dhalisay googlkii.
During the second half of the match one of the boys passed the ball to Andiswa. She moved very fast towards the goal post. She kicked the ball hard and scored a goal.
Wakati wa kipindi cha pili kijana mmoja alimpatia Andiswa mpira. Akakimbia kwa kasi sana kuelekea golini. Akaupiga mpira kwa nguvu na akafunga goli.
Dadki badnaa waxay la dhaceen farxad saaid ah, Ilaa maalinkaas, gabdhaha na waa loo ogoladay in ay ciyaaraan kubada cagta ee iskuulka.
The crowd went wild with joy. Since that day, girls were also allowed to play soccer at the school.
Umati ukashangilia kwa vifijo na furaha. Kuanzia siku hiyo, wasichana waliruhusiwa kucheza mpira wa miguu kwenye timu ya shule.
