Sentalle tottera e tusot vain esa.

Y careda d’Ese te nagare cero, t’éllat terra to Chinare te na tùva cota naresa, y careda allete t’abitesa.

Y careda mune na mune te, “Torregile te ferricho t’ico, saté ase te sentalliche felaga” to vanasesa. 

Y careda torregile pore curache te, y odù pore chicculi e teniresa.

Y careda, “Natalida tochi y torro e ferricho t’ico, to fare to né sora na tassura to decit, y tara terracu na terra ma sacema mejeda nome te ferricho" to vanasesa.

Y Déo tochi y torro e miro to ceresa, to jin ferresa.

Y Déo, “Cha miro: jin tomo ire, y careda tomo vain tenira, y rillen to careda ilesaracu narit to tegnerre veu” to vanasesa.

“Ba na icicho, y allete careda to vain damasa, care careda vain to mune na mune te wacaro to ne deca.”

Saté Déo, careda allete de terracu na terra e sacemesa, y careda tochi ferra t’icesa.

Allete Déo vain to terra e damasesa, care nome Babele te naresa, y allete de Déo careda e terracu na terra sacemesa.
