Alioze ha umwe ufuku Falau yapwa ni yimwe yilota yilemu yaali, nawa iye yazanga kunyingika ulumbunwiso wa yilota yacho. Unamono chize iye anapombo? Ha chimene, Falau yasanyika malunga jenyi akwa mana yaalweza yuma yize iye alotele. Mba alioze ayo kakahashile kuhana ulumbunwiso wa yilota yenyi.

Hohene hi mukwa kuhana musenge mba yeuluka kama Yosefwe. Iye yamba kuli Falau ngwenyi: ‘Muze yami napwile mu zuwo lia ususu mwapwile umwe lunga te wakuhasa kulumbununa yilota.’ Falau yatuma kawashi kusaka Yosefwe ku zuwo lia ususu.

Falau yalweza yilota yenyi kuli Yosefwe ngwenyi: ‘Yami yingumona ngombe shimbiali atohwa nawa apema. Mba yingumona nawa ngombe shimbiali awangama nawa api a yifwaha-yifwaha. Mba ngombe waze te awangama yalia waze te atohwa.

‘Mu chilota chamuchiali, Yami yingumona mieho shimbiali yinene yipema yili ku chishachi chimuwika. Nawa yingumona mieho shimbiali yalela, yahuhuka. Alioze mieho yacho yalela nawa yahuhuka yiputuka kulia mieho yipema.’
