En liyar, mir yoyo muhpili i anvu en luyol no eodyel, su i yavuson galiu e jetai.

Cali lufu i davio no pohem, tam muhpili i aniyel ganou su i anelem en leirih, lilon a neliu i helufu ganrih.

De leirih, hay i vardei e mu ca i apaleno en lenous lea.

Notor a lufu i gafei, su o muhpili i lili garel.

Hay i anvu ganrih, i eodyel e neliu, su a eodyel i ancem jetai lusari.

Lisoi hayas i davio no yalgai en nordau luyol su i vardeium hue.

Show English translation

In the morning, many colorful birds move through the sky as a group, changing direction little by little.

When the wind grows strong, one bird comes lower and settles in a tree while the others continue above.

From the tree, it watches small animals that dig in the prairie.

Then the wind weakens, and the bird rises again.

It moves upward, rejoins the others, and the group turns in the direction of the sun.

Soon they become small in the distant sky and are no longer seen.
