My groot, rooi bal.
Ibhola lami elikhulu, elibomvu.
Ibhola yam enkulu, ebomvu.
My big red ball.
Ek skop my rooi bal.
Ngikhahlela ibhola lami elibomvu.
Ndikhaba ibhola yam ebomvu.
I kick my red ball.
Ek skop my rooi bal hard!
Ngikhahlela ibhola lami elibomvu kakhulu!
Ndiyikhaba kakhulu ibhola yam ebomvu!
I kick my red ball hard!
Waar is my rooi bal nou?
Liphi ibhola lami elibomvu manje?
Iphi ibhola yam ebomvu ngoku?
Where is my red ball
now?
Dit is hoog bo in die lug.
Phezulu esibhakabhakeni.
Iphezulu kakhulu esibhakabhakeni.
It is high up in the sky.
Dit is hoog bo in die lug, oor die maan.
Ngabe lidlule inyanga? Ngubani owaziyo?
Iphezulu kakhulu esibhakabhakeni, ngaphaya kwenyanga. Imkile!
It is high up in the sky.
It is over the moon.
It is gone!
