Walaalkeyga yar wuxuu seexdaa waqti dambe. Anigu waxaan soo toosaa xilli hore, maxaa yeelay waa mid aad u wanaagsan!
My little brother sleeps very late. I wake early, because I am great!
Anigu waxaan ahay kan qorraxda soo bixiyo.
I am the one who lets in the sun.
“Waxaad tahay xiddigta subaxdayda,” ayuu yidhi Mama.
“You’re my morning star,” says Ma.
Anigu waan maydhaa, ma u baahni wax caawin ah.
I wash myself, I don’t need any help.
Waxaan u dul qaadan karaa biyo qabow iyo saabuun shiirayso oo buluug ah.
I can cope with cold water and blue smelly soap.
Mama aya i xasuusiyo, “Ha iloobin ilkaha.” Waxaan ku jawaabaa, “Marnaba, aniga ma ihi!”
Ma reminds, “Don’t forget teeth.” I reply, “Never, not me!”
Ka dib markii aan maydho, waxaan salaamaa awoowe iyo eedo, oo waxaan u rajeeyaa ayaga maalin wanaagsan.
After washing, I greet Grandpa and Auntie, and wish them a good day.
Dabadeedna waan labistaa, “hadda waan weynahay Mama,” ayaan dhahaa.
Then I dress myself, “I’m big now Ma,” I say.
Waxaan xidhi karaaguluusyadeeyda iyo suunka kabahayga.
I can close my buttons and buckle my shoes.
Waxaan na hubiyaa in walaalkeyga yar uu yaqaano dhamaan wararka iskuulka.
And I make sure little brother knows all the school news.
Fasalka dhexdiisa waxaan ku dadaalayaa sida ugu fiican.
In class I do my best in every way.
Waxyaabahan wanaagsan oo dhan waxaan sameeyaa maalin kasta. Laakiin waxa aan ugu jeclahay, waa in aan ciyaaro oo aan ciyaaro!
I do all these good things every day. But the thing I like most, is to play and play!
