Embuzi, embwa n’ente byali binywani byamani. Kiro kimu bikakwata orungendo mu motoka.
Goat, Dog, and Cow
were great friends. One
day they went on a
journey in a taxi.
Obubyahikire hakumalira kworungendo rwabyo, omuvugi yabisaba kusasura ebisale byorugendo. Ente ekasasura ebyayo.
When they reached the
end of their journey, the
driver asked them to
pay their fares. Cow
paid her fare.
Embwa ekasasura nyingiho, habwokuba ekaba etaine sente zonyini ezihingire.
Dog paid a bit extra,
because he did not
have the correct money.
Omuvugi akaba alihaihi kugarurra embwa sente zayo ezisigaireyo nubwo embuzi yairukire etasaswire kantu kona.
The driver was about to
give Dog his change
when Goat ran away
without paying
anything.
Omuvungi akabihirwa muno yavuga yagenda atagaruliire embwa sente zayo ezisigaireyo.
The driver was very
annoyed. He drove
away without giving
Dog his change.
Nikyo, kuhika nakiro kinu embwa irukirra motoka kulinguza munda nukwo erole omuvugi owerukutonga sente zayo ezasigaireyo.
That is why, even
today, Dog runs
towards a car to peep
inside and find the
driver who owes him his
change.
Embuzi iruka iraka lya motoka netiina kukwatwa habwokutasara sente zorugendo.
Goat runs away from
the sound of a car. She
is afraid she will be
arrested for not paying
her fare.
Kandi ente tefayo obwehurra motoka niija. Ente etwara obwiire kucwanganiza oruguudo habwokuba nemanya ekasasura sente zayo zahwayo.
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.
