- Aye abantu bwe baaja nga batambulatambula eyo batyo mu buvandhuba, baayagaana aghataamuufu baasenga agho.
- Baakoba bati: “Ka tuwumbe amatoofaali, tugookye bukalamu, gabbalanguke.” Kale baaba n'amatoofaali mu kifo ky'amabaale, era n'eitosi mu kifo kya seminti.
- Agho baakoba bati: “Ka twezimbire ekibuga, twezimbire n'omunaala ogutuuka ku igulu tumanhikane, memale tulobe kusansaanizibwa mu nsi.”
- Agho Musengwa Katonda yaika ghansi okubona ekibuga n'omunaala abantu abo bye baali bazimbye,
- era yaakoba ati: “Abantu bano boonaboona bali muntu mulala, era boogera olulimi lulala! Kino kitoolereiza butoolereze ku ebyo bye baidha okukola ye bwidha baidha kukolanga kyonakyona kye benda!
- Ka twike ghansi tutabuletabule olulimi lwaibwe, buli mulala alobe kutegeera wundi ky'akoba.”
- Kale Musengwa Katonda yaabasansaaniza eyo mu nsi yoonayoona, era baalekera okuzimba ekibuga.
