ABaisirairi era tete ni bakola ekyabbaire ekibbikibbi omumaiso ga Musengwa. Kale oMusengwa nʼabawaayo omu bwezye wʼaBafirisuuti ni babafuga emyanka 40. 
Omu biseera ebyo wabbairewo omusaiza, eriinalye bati Manowa, owʼe Zola, owʼekika kyʼaBadaani. Omusaiza oyo yabbaire nʼomukali abula omwana. 
Lumo, omalaika wa Musengwa yabonekeire omukali oyo nʼamukoba ati, “Obula omwana, neye oyaba okubba kida, obyale omwana mwisuka. 
Atyanu, weekuume tiwaanywanga enviinyo, ooba ekiteemeerya ekindi kyonakyona, waire okulya ekintu kyonakyona ekitali kirongoole. 
Ekyo kityo olwʼokubba, oyaba okubba kida obyale omwana mwisuka. Era tibamumwangaku enziiri, olwʼokubba omwana oyo okuzwa ngʼowebalimubyala yalibba muwonge eeri oKibbumba. Era niiye eyalitandiika omulimo gwʼokununula oIsirairi okuzwa omu bufugi bwʼaBafirisuuti.” 
Awo omukali nago nʼayaba nʼakobera oibaaye ati, “Omuntu wa Kibbumba aizire e gyendi, nga wʼentiisya, era ngʼaboneka ooti malaika wa Kibbumba. Nandi ni mmuwulya e gyazwire, era nandi nʼankobera eriinalye. 
Neye ankobere ati njaba okubba kida, era mbyale omwana mwisuka. Ankobere okutaanywanga enviinyo, waire ekiteemeerya ekindi kyonakyona, nʼokutalya ekintu kyonakyona ekitali kirongoole, olwʼokubba okuzwa ngʼowenalimubyala yalibba Muwonge eeri oKibbumba paka omwana oyo oweyalifa.” 
Awo oManowa nʼasaba oMusengwa ngʼakoba ati, “Oo Musengwa, nkwegairiire, oganye omuntu oyo iwe Kibbumba oguwatutumiire, aire e gituli, atwegesye engeri egitwalikulyamu omwana ogutwalibyala.” 
OKibbumba nʼairamu okusaba kwa Manowa, era omalaika wa Kibbumba tete nʼaira eeri omukali oweyabbaire atyaime omu musiri. Neye oManowa oibaaye tiyabbaire naye. 
Omukali nʼairuka mangu nʼakobera oibaaye ati, “Omusaiza odi eyaizire e gyendi ludi, tete ambonekeire!” 
OManowa nʼasetuka nʼasengererya omukaliwe. Oweyatuukire e giri omusaiza nago, yamubwirye ati, “Niiwe eyatumwire nʼomukali onu?” Nʼamwiramu ati, “Ninze.” 
Awo oManowa nʼamubuulya ati, “Ebibonobyo owebyalituukirira, biragiroki ebitwalikoleraku nga tukulya omwana oyo? Era omwana oyo yalikola mulimoki?” 
OMalaika wa Musengwa nʼairamu oManowa ati, “OMukaliwo ateekwa okukola byonabyona ebinamukobere. 
Tali nʼokulya ekintu kyonakyona ekizwa oku muzabbibbu, waire okunywa enviinyo ooba ekyokunywa ekindi kyonakyona ekiteemeerya, waire okulya ekintu kyonakyona ekitali kirongoole. Ateekwa okukola byonabyona ebinamulagiire.” 
OManowa nʼakoba omalaika wa Musengwa ati, “Nkwegayiriire, osigale aanu, tukusumbirewo ombuli omutomuto atuukire okulya.” 
Neye omalaika wa Musengwa nʼakoba oManowa ati, “Waire nasigala na iwe, tinaalye oku kyokulyakyo. Neye owoobba wʼokutegeka sadaaka egibooca yonayona, ogiweeyo eeri Musengwa.” OManowa tiyategeire ati oyo yabbaire malaika wa Musengwa. 
OManowa nʼabuulya omalaika wa Musengwa ati, “Eriinalyo niiwe onaani, kaisi ebibonobyo owebyalituukirira tukuwe ekitiisya?” 
OMalaika wa Musengwa nʼamubuulya ati, “Lwaki obuulya eriina lyange? Eriina libitiriri lyʼokutegeera.” 
Awo oManowa nʼakwata ombuli omutomuto nago nʼekyokuwaayo ekyokulya ekyʼempeke, nʼabiweerayo okwibbaale eeri oMusengwa. OMusengwa nʼakola ekyewunyo oManowa nʼomukaliwe nga babona. 
Endimi gyʼomusyo owegyazwire oku kyoto, ni gyaba engulu, omalaika wa Musengwa nʼayaba omwigulu ngʼali omu ndimi gyʼomusyo ogwo. OManowa nʼomukaliwe owebaboine ekyo ni bakoma amazwi ni baica empumi ansi okwitakali okumuwa ekitiisya. 
Omalaika wa Musengwa owenandi nʼairamu okubonekera oManowa nʼomukaliwe, oManowa nʼakakasa ati oyo abbaire malaika wa Musengwa. 
OManowa nʼakoba omukaliwe ati, “Mazima twaba kufa, olwʼokubba tuboine oKibbumba!” 
Neye omukaliwe nʼamukoba ati, “Singa oMusengwa abbaire ataka kutwita, tiyandiikiriirye esadaaka yaiswe egibooca yonayona, nʼekyokuwaayo ekyokulya ekyʼempeke. Era tiyanditulagire ebyo byonabyona, waire okutukobera ebintu ebyo.” 
Oluzwanyuma omukali wa Manowa nʼabyala omwana mwisuka nʼamuwa eriina ati Samusooni. Omwana nʼakula, era oMusengwa nʼamuwa enkabi. 
OMwoyo wa Musengwa nʼatandiika okukolera mwiye ngʼali omu Makane Daani aakati wa Zola nʼEsitawoli.
