Angalia, moto!

Look, fire!

Mona, umulilo!


Moto unachoma.

Fire burns.

Umulilo ulooca.


Moto unatumika kupika.

Fire cooks.

Umulilo ulabomba mukwipika.


Moto unaleta joto.

Fire gives warmth.

Umulilo ulapeela icikabilila.


Moto unaleta mwanga.

Fire gives light.

Umulilo ulapeela ulubuto.


Angalia, moto!

Look, fire!

Mona, umulilo!


Moto ni wa ajabu.

Fire is wonderful.

Umulilo usuma.


Na una nguvu sana.

And it is powerful.

Elyo kabili walikwata amaka.
