Arai kolong Akine, Ing’ok ka Aite ng’ipaalon luminan noi. Apei kwaar tolimosi aperor, dio todoka amotoka.
Goat, Dog, and Cow
were great friends. One
day they went on a
journey in a taxi.
Na anang’eta ni alose dio totiyaunos. Abu ekamen amotoka king’it kechi ngaropiyae. Tolemu Aite nakeng daang tatach.
When they reached the
end of their journey, the
driver asked them to
pay their fares. Cow
paid her fare.
Dio Ing’ok kipoto anot ang’aropiyae kidaru na achamakina ebuakinio ng’esi.
Dog paid a bit extra,
because he did not
have the correct money.
Napei ebala ekamen amotoka atobuwak Ing’ok ng’aropiyae na adikino ebongunete, kipung’ar Akine nyetacha!
The driver was about to
give Dog his change
when Goat ran away
without paying
anything.
Tong’o ekamen amotokaa lokojokon kitorotok amotoka nyebuakina Ing’ok ng’aropiyae keng.
The driver was very
annoyed. He drove
away without giving
Dog his change.
Ng’akiro erakari Ing’ok na ing’olikinia amotoka kipung’akin esaki ng’aropiyae keng nakolong edong’ete lokamen amotokaa.
That is why, even
today, Dog runs
towards a car to peep
inside and find the
driver who owes him his
change.
Na eng’olikinia Akine amotoka abu kipung’ar namoni kotere eemit akirumuno king’itae ng’aropiyae.
Goat runs away from
the sound of a car. She
is afraid she will be
arrested for not paying
her fare.
Nabo inisa Aite alorukudi kotere eyeni atamari atach kolong emam nyakadaitae ng’aropiyae.
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.
