ULwando unodadewabo omncinci ogama linguOyiso.
Ngamanye amaxesha uyathandeka kakhulu.

Kodwa ngamanye amaxesha ujika abe
lirhamncwa.

Akuyongxaki oko, kuba uLwando

ungumenzi mbuna werhamncwa.

NgoMvulo, irhamncwa belibonakala linomsindo.

Kodwa uLwando ebesazi  ukuba wenziwa nje kukulamba.

NgoLwesibini, irhamncwa belibonakala
linomsindo kakhulu.

Kodwa uLwando ebesazi ukuba udiniwe nje kuphela.

NgoLwesithathu,  irhamncwa belibonakala
linomsindo ngakumbi.

ISIKOLO

Kodwa uLwando ebesazi ukuba ulusizi nje kuphela.

NgoLwesine, irhamncwa belibonakala  linomsindo omkhulu.

Kodwa uLwando ebesazi ukuba ufuna nje inzolo.

Kodwa ngoLwesihlanu,
khange kulunge kwanto.

Ngoku bekukho amarhamncwa amabini.

Amarhamncwa aye esiba makhulu ngokuba makhulu.

GRAAAAAAM!

GRRRRRRRR!

Aba makhulu ngakumbi.

Ngethamsanqa, uTata ungoyena ukwaziyo  ukwenza mbuna amarhamncwa. Uyazi ukuba awunakwenza mbuna amarhamncwa   ngokuba mkhulu ngakumbi okanye ube   nomsindo ngakumbi.

Ungawenza mbuna amarhamncwa ngokuwanceda azive   ekhuselekile.
