Ta naazoo! Neni ne shoorozas waase gelidaa gidikko, hara asa gishshas neni kushe baqqa caaqqidaa gidikko, 
neni gelida qaalan oykettidaa gidikko, ne doonappe ke7ida qaalan ne oykettidaa gidikko, 
ta naazoo! Neni ne shooroza kushen kundida gishshas nena ashshanaas baada iza sinththan kunda; ne shoorozakko baada shoobba. 
Hessaththo ooththontta dashe dhiskofa; ne siphinththati liphopetto. 
Shankkanchchatappe genessi kessi ekki attiza mala, yarden oykettontta attida kafo mala nena ashsha. 
Nenoo azallazoo! Cunccalletaakko ba; histtada isttafe tamaarada aadho eranchcha gida. 
Cunccalletas azazizay deenna; istta haarizay deenna. 
Gido attiin banttas maana miish bone shiishsheettes; kath shiishshiza wode banttas kath shiishsheettes. 
Nenoo azallazoo! Neni awude gakkanaas dhiskanee? Dhiskofekka ne awude beegganee? 
«Tani guuththara dhiska ekkana; guuththara liipha dendana; ta kushe borkotada guuththara shempa ekkana» ne gishin, 
he wode manqoteththi panga mala, pacey ola miishsha oykkida asa mala ne bolla puttu gaana. 
Womaleynne menxe iita asi yuuyi yuuyidi iita qaala haasayzay, 
ba ayfera qim7otizay, ba tohon bessizay, ba biradhdhetankka malatizay, 
ba wozinan iita miish woththi denththi qoppizay ay wodekka oosh denththees. 
Hessa gaason bashshi akeekontta iza bolla yaana; izi hassa7ay baynda meqqana; meqqidikka paxenna. 
GODAY ixxiza usuppun yo7oti deettes; laappunththaza keehi harasettees. 
Otoreteththan xeelliza ayfe, wordotiza inxars, xillo asata wodhiza kushe, 
iita miish qoppiza wozina, iitaso eesotiza tohota, 
wordo bolla wordo gujji gujjidi yootiza wordo markka, ishantta giddon oosh medhdhiza asa. 
Ta naazoo! Ne aawa azazo pola; ne aaya tamaarsidayssaka aggofa. 
Istta ubbato ne wozinan oykka; ne qoodhenkka qachcha. 
Neni hemettiza wode istti nena kaaleththana; neni ichchiza wode istti nena naagana; neni beegottiza wodekka istti nena zorana. 
Ays giikko ha azazoti nees xomppe; timirtetikka poo7o; qasse seeraykka de7okko efiza oge. 
Ha azazoti iita maccassafe nena naagana; doonan cimmiza hawusha maccassafekka naagana. 
Izi lo7eteththa ne wozinan amottofa; izi qim7oteththan oykettofa. 
Issi addey bana bayza diza maccassayo guuththa miishshan demmanaas dandayees; asa machchi geedo kaaloy nees shemppo dhayssana. 
Issi asi tama idimmiin iza may7oy meetettontta attanaas dandayzee? 
Issi asi bonqo tama yedhdhi bishin iza tohoy xuugettontta attana dandayzee? 
Asa machcho laggeththiza asi hessa mala; izo bochchiza ubbay qaxxayettontta attenna. 
Kaysoy gafa attanaas kaysikko asay iza kadhenna. 
Gido attiin izas diza aqota ubbaa oychchikokka izi oykettidaa gidikko laappun kushe qanxxana bessees. 
Layma laymatiza asas wozinay pace; hessaadey barkka ba shemppo dhayssees. 
Bukaynne kawushshateththi izas qaada; yeellateththi izappe mulekka qucettenna. 
Qanaatey azina hanqettana mala denththeththees; izi halo kessiza wode izas qadhettenna. 
Izi ay edakka ekkenna; ay keena imotaykka iza hanqo doshisenna.
