Eelihuy ba haasaya gujjidi hizgides; 
«Xoossa gishshas tani haasayana haray diza gishshas guuth dandayada ta gizayssa siya. 
Tani darosoppe demmida erateththan, tana medhdhida Xoossi Xillo gididayssa tani nees erisays. 
Ta qaalay wordo gidonttayssa neni lo7eththa era; nenara haasayana taas kumeththa erateththi dizayssa era. 
«Tumukka Xoossi wolqqama; gido attiin oonakka kadhenna; izi ubbaaka akeekees. 
Izi iita asata paxa woththenna. Metotida asatas gidikko suure pirda pirdees. 
Xoossi xillo asata naagees; kawota mala bonchcho algan utisees; mernaas istta dhoqqu dhoqqu histtees. 
Gido attiin asi sansalatan qashettiko, woykko meto giten oykettiko, 
istti ba otoreteththan ooththida nagara qonccisees. 
Istti seera siyana mala istta hayththaa doyees; istti bantta iita oosaappe simmidi maarettana mala azazees. 
Istti Xoossas azazettidi ooththiko, banttas attida layththa dureteththaninne ufayssan ongana. 
Gido attiin iza siyontta ixxiko istti olan wurana; istti bantta eeyateththan dishe hayqqana. 
«Bantta wozinara Xoossa kaddizayti qaxxayettida mala daana; izi istta qaxxayshinkka istta kaaleththizayti woossettenna. 
Istti ba poliza iita laymateththa boshan dhayana; bantta yelagateththa layththankka mulqqetti hayqqana. 
Xoossi meton un7ettizayta istta metaappe ashshana; istta gakkida metaan isttas timirte immana. 
«Hayssa ha wodezan Xoossi nees qoppizay nena ne diza metaappe kessidi lo7o kaththi kumida maaddan efanaassa. 
Ha7i gidikko ne ooththida mooraappe dendoyssan ne bolla pirdettida gishshas, nees bessiza qixaate eko bolla daasa. 
Oonikka nena dureteththa daron cimontta mala; matta7enkka nena baleththontta mala naagetta. 
Nees diza aqotaynne godateththi daro gidikkoka nena metoppe ashshettenna. 
Deraa dizasoppe dhayssiza dhuma wodey yaana mala amottofa. 
Neni meto giddon paacettizay hessa gaason gidida gishshas simmada nagara ooththontta mala naagetta. 
«Xoossa wolqqay ay mala gitakko akeeka; Xoossi ubbaafe aadho astamaare. 
‹Hayssa ooththa› giidi Xoossa azaziza asi woykko, ‹Iita ooso ooththadasa› giidi iza walassizay oonee? 
Izi ooththiza oosaa gishshas asay ubba wode mazamuren galatizayssa mala, nenikka iza oosaas yeththan galata. 
Asa zereththi ubbay Xoossa oosaa be7ides; asay tishshi ooththi haakon be7ides. 
Xoossa gitateththa pilggidi gakkanaas nuni dandayokko; iza layththa qoodaykka nu erappe bolla. 
«Xoossi haaththa abbafe pude salo efees; zaaridikka ira saloppe duge bukisees. 
Ira shaarappe kessidi wolqqama ira asas bukisees. 
Gido attiin Xoossi shaara wostti miccizaakko, wolqqanththa giddon uttidi izi waani haasayzaakko ooni eranawu dandayzee? 
Xoossi abba ciimmateththa kammidi izi ba yuushon wolqqanththa wostti laallizaakko xeella. 
Hayssa mala ooththidi Xoossi ba deraa ayssees; asay miza daro kaththaaka mokisees. 
Wolqqanththa izi ba kushen oykkees; oykkidi ba dosida bagga baana mala azazees. 
Daday wolqqama iray yaanayssa malatees; mehetikka ira uushoy yizayssa ereettes.
