Ongombo, ombwa nongombe vya ri omapanga omanene. Eyuva rimwe ovyo vya toora ouyenda mokasaru.
Goat, Dog, and Cow
were great friends. One
day they went on a
journey in a taxi.
Tji va vaza pu mave herukire, omuhinge wa pura otjisuta. Ongombe ya suta.
When they reached the
end of their journey, the
driver asked them to
pay their fares. Cow
paid her fare.
Ombwa ya suta ovimariva ovingi kaṱiṱi mena rokutja vya ri mumwe.
Dog paid a bit extra,
because he did not
have the correct money.
Omuhinge ngunda ama kondjisa okuyandja otjendja kombwa, ongombo ai tupuka nokuhina okusuta.
The driver was about to
give Dog his change
when Goat ran away
without paying
anything.
Omuhinge wa pindikire tjinene nu a hingi nokuhina okuyandja otjendja kombwa.
The driver was very
annoyed. He drove
away without giving
Dog his change.
Okuza keyuva ndo, ozombwa ze rambera ovihauto, kutja ze kamunine moukoto nokupaha omuhinge ngu na otjendja yazo.
That is why, even
today, Dog runs
towards a car to peep
inside and find the
driver who owes him his
change.
Ozongombo tji za zuu ombosiro yohauto ze tupuka. Ozo ze tira kutja ngaaze kamburwa tjinga aze ha sutire.
Goat runs away from
the sound of a car. She
is afraid she will be
arrested for not paying
her fare.
Nu inḓa ozongombe kaze rikende tji maze kondo ondjira, orondu ozo za suta otjisuta atjihe.
And Cow is not
bothered when a car is
coming. Cow takes her
time crossing the road
because she knows she
paid her fare in full.
