The Mouse and the Cat
Once upon a time there was a fat cat. He always wore a red cap. Once when he was sleeping, a small mouse came silently and stole the hat. The cat woke up to see his hat gone, got very angry and started chasing the mouse. After a while, the mouse was trapped under a table and could not find any way to escape. So the mouse cried to the cat, "Please don't eat me cat. If you spare my life I will return your hat." So, after getting back his hat the cat said, "Never touch my hat again" and he went back to sleep in a happy mood.
Paka na panya
Hapo zamani za kale kulikuwa na paka mnono. Alikuwa anavalia kofia nyekundu kila wakati. Wakati mmoja alipokuwa amelala, panya mdogo alinyemelea na kuiba ile kofia. Paka alipoamka alipata kofia yake haipo, akakasirika sana kisha akaanza kumfukuza yule panya. Baada ya muda mfupi, panya alinaswa chini ya meza na akakosa njia yoyote ya kutoroka. Kisha panya akamlilia paka, "Tafadhali usinile paka. Kwani usiponila nitairudisha kofia yako." Baada ya kurudishiwa kofia yake paka akasema, "Usijaribu tena kuguza kofia yangu." Kisha paka akarudi kulala akiwa amefurahi sana.
