Kera kera habya e’Gonya eyikwire enzalha,

Once there was a very hungry crocodile.

Hapo zamani, palikuwa na mamba mwenye njaa.


Mwayarondya ebyalya lyolholyolho kandi omwabukuthu. Neryo…

He searched for food slowly and quietly. And then…

Alitafuta chakula taratibu na kwa ukimya. Halafu…


Mpwaaa!!! Egonya yawirira!

POW!!! The crocodile strikes!

POO!!! Mamba anashambulia!


Yabere yabiriwirira, muyamera, neryo yamiwutha. Neryo enzalha yamabalha neryo yamayanza.

After that he is no longer hungry, and he is happy.

Baada ya hapo hana njaa tena, na anafurahi.


Kuhika ahayakwira enzalha, kandi.

Until he gets hungry again.

Hadi atakapopatwa na njaa tena.
