So people send children to cross the river with messages that deliver themselves slowly.
Ngo hato udasamara ugata impanuro za mama na masenge hakurya ya murambi ukajya mukagarama aho nakiniye iby'abana ku kagezi ka mushoroza ku nzira ijya kwa mama wacu nkumbuye kukambuka yoyooyoyooo mushoroza mushoroza weee nkumbuye kukwambukaaa.
I fear that if I don't hurry, I will miss my mother's and masenge's advice across the valley and go to the village where I once enjoyed my childhood on the Mushoroza River on the way to our mother's home. I miss crossing it. Oh, Mushoroza, Mushoroza, I miss crossing you. Mushoroza, Mushoroza, I miss crossing you.
