“Onipa a ɔbaa awo no none nna yɛ tiaa bi na ɔhaw dɔɔso wɔ mu.

Ɔfefɛ te sɛ nhwiren na ɛtwintwam;ɔte sɛ sunsum a ɛretwam akɔ, ɔntena hɔ nkyɛ.

Woma wʼani kɔ saa onipa yi so?Wode no bɛba wʼanim abɛbu no atɛn anaa?

Hwan na ɔbɛtumi ayi deɛ ɛyɛ kronn afiri efi mu?Obiara nni hɔ.

Woahyehyɛ onipa nkwa nna;woahyɛ nʼabosome dodoɔ ato hɔna woahyɛ no ɛberɛ a ɔrentumi ntra.

Enti, yi wʼani firi ne so na ɔnyɛ deɛ ɔpɛ,kɔsi sɛ ɔbɛwie nʼadwuma sɛ ɔpaani.

“Dua mpo anidasoɔ wɔ hɔ ma no:Sɛ wɔtwa a, ɛbɛfefɛ bio,na ne mman foforɔ no rempempan.

Ne nhini bɛtumi anyini akyɛre asase muna ne dunsini nso awu wɔ dɔteɛ mu,

nanso, ɔnya nsuo a ɛfefɛ,na ɛyiyi mman sɛ dua a wɔatɛ.

Nanso, sɛ nnipa wu a wɔde no hyɛ fam;ɔhome deɛ ɛtwa toɔ a, na afei ɔnni hɔ bio.

Sɛdeɛ nsuo tu yera wɔ ɛpo mu no,anaa sɛdeɛ nsuka mu weɛ no,

“Sɛ anka wode me bɛsie damena mude me ahinta kɔsi sɛ wʼabofuo bɛtwam!Sɛ anka wobɛhyɛ me berɛna afei woakae me!

Sɛ onipa wu a, ɔbɛba nkwa mu bio anaa?Mʼaperedie nna mu nyinaamɛtwɛn akɔsi sɛ me foforɔyɛ bɛba.

Wobɛfrɛ na mɛgye wo so;wʼani bɛgyina abɔdeɛ a wo nsa ayɛ.

Afei wobɛkan mʼanammɔntuona worenni me bɔne akyi.

Wɔbɛsɔ me bɔne ano wɔ kotokuo mu,na woakata mʼamumuyɛ so.

“Nanso, sɛdeɛ mmepɔ so hohoro na ɛdwiriena abotan nso twe firi ne siberɛ no,

Wotintim ne so prɛko pɛ, na ɔtwam kɔ;wosakyera ne nipasu na wogya no kwan.

Sɛ wɔhyɛ ne mmammarima animuonyam a, ɔnnim;na sɛ wɔbrɛ wɔn ase a, ɔnhunu.

Ɔno ara wedeɛ mu yea na ɔteɛna ɔno ara ne ho na ɔgyam.”
