A small boy and his food, he puts them on the mat. Another boy he comes. He sees the food and he takes it. He gives some to his small brother and they eat. Not long, the oldest boy comes. He sees the mat but there is no food. He looks over and two boys are eating. “Why are you eating my food?” he says. “You do not have any?” “No, we don’t have any but you are eating!” “Who said you got mine?” “No one, we saw them and we got them” “But I want, these are mine but I will give some back to you and we will eat together” And then they shared it, then sat together and then they ate it. When the finished eating, one said, “I want some more, are there any coconuts?” “Yes, coconuts are on the tree. If you want to climb, I won’t climb that tree because it’s big, I am not big. But my big brother knows how to climb!” He went and called his big brother. The big brother came and climbed and then he threw three down for the boys and he kept one for himself. He got the knife and bore holes and they drank the water. When they were satisfied, they played again. They played a little bit and they slept. They lay on the ground and they went to sleep. They woke up and they were hungry again but they had no food. One boy said, I”I am going to my mother, she will give me more food” And the other one said, “Me too, I am going because she gave me food yesterday!” So they all went to his mother. “Mother, we want eat some things!” one said. “You’ll give us some?” “Here, some yams are here! Am I the one who is feeding you all? Yesterday I gave you food! If you want food, you should go and look for it yourself. After this don’t return today”. The boys took the food and left. They sat down in the shade and ate. Then one boy said, “I saw a snake!” “Where did you see it?” the others asked. “Over there, near the stone!” “Okay, let’s catch it!” but the boys were afraid of the snake and didn’t go for it. “Hey, did the snake see them. Is it afraid of us too?” The snake slithered under the rock and the boys looked for other things to go. Transcribed by Eileen Bobone.

《男孩与椰子》的故事：一名小男孩将食物放在席子上。另一名男孩前来，看到食物后便拿走了，还分给自己的小弟弟，二人一同进食。不久后，年纪最大的男孩到来，他看到席子上已无食物，环顾四周后发现两名男孩正在吃东西。"为什么你们在吃我的食物？"他说道。"你没有食物了吗？""没有，我们没有食物，但你们在吃我的东西！""谁说这些是你的？""没人这么说，但我们看到了这些食物，就拿来吃了。""但这是我的，不过我可以分给你们一些，我们一起吃吧。"随后他们共享了食物，坐在一起共进餐食。吃完后，一名男孩说道："我还想吃，还有椰子吗？""有，椰子在树上。如果你想爬树的话，我可不去，那树太高了，我个子不够大，但我大哥会爬树！"他跑去叫来了大哥，大哥爬树后扔下来三个椰子，自己留了一个。他们拿出刀具在椰子上钻孔，饮用椰汁。吃饱后，他们继续玩耍，玩了一会儿便躺下睡觉了。他们躺在地上沉沉睡去。醒来后，他们又饿了，但已经没有食物了。一名男孩说："我要去找我妈妈，她会给我们更多食物。"另一名男孩也说道："我也要去，她昨天还给我食物了！"于是他们一同去找男孩的母亲。"妈妈，我们想吃点东西。"一名男孩说道。"你们还要我给你们食物？这里有一些山药！难道我一直在喂你们吗？昨天我刚给过你们食物！如果你们想要食物，就应该自己去寻找。从今以后，今天不许再回来了。"男孩们拿上食物离开了，他们在树荫下坐下进食。随后一名男孩说道："我看到一条蛇！""你在哪里看到的？"其他男孩问道。"就在那边，石头附近！""好，我们去抓住它！"但男孩们都很怕蛇，不敢上前。"嘿，那条蛇有没有看到我们？它是不是也怕我们？"蛇爬到了石头底下，男孩们便去找别的乐子了。
