Uyu ndi mkomba mbale,

Uyu ndi chitsiru chache,

Tikumenya iwe: Go! Go!”

Can you guess what this is all about? You have a rhyme that means just the same. Well this is what these funny words mean:—

“This is the shaky little finger,

This is his younger brother,

This is the one in the middle,

This is the plate-scraper,

This is an old fool,

I beat you thus: Go! Go!”
