Munthu ule nkhubwerera, wafamba munthu ule, wafamba munthu ule, wafamba, wafamba… wafamba munthu ule, pale nkhugumana madzi. Nkhugumana kathawale ka madzi.
Afika pale munthu ule nkhumwa madzi yale akhana mbadzo yace, mbwaya zace zire nkhumwambo. Ule kumbawona kuti mui uyó, nkhugumana mulambe ukhana nyúci, ati pora, ine ndacita mwawi pakuona kuti ndiribe kubulukira ne kassindi, ne kaciyani. Natere ndina mwawi ndabulukira uxi, lekani ndimole uxibu, ndimole uxi inepano. Pale, mwamuna ule, nkhutenga mbadzo yace nkhugwata tumiti twace twa ngololo, nkhukhoma pa mulambe, nkhukwira na thini lace mpangono pangono mpaka pana uxi pale. Nkhumola uxi bwace bule, adadzaza thini lace tolo, akandeya wokha wokha. Tsono, pakubuluka nkhokho ibodzi idatchóka. Ule adakumbuka apa inepano nifera muno.
