Kausap ni Khalai ang halaman Khalai spricht mit der Pflanze Khalai talks to the plant Khalai praat met de plant

Ito si Khalai. This is Khalai. Pitong taong gulang siya. He is seven years old. Sa Lubukusu, “mabuti” ang kahulugan ng pangalan niya. In Lubukusu, his name means "good".

Kinakausap ni Khalai ang puno ng dalandan, “Dalandan, pasuyo naman, sana magkaroon ka ng marami at malalaking prutas.” Khalai was talking to the orange tree, "Orange, please, I hope you have many and big fruits."

Naglalakad si Khalai papunta sa iskul. Khalai walks to school. Nadadaanan niya ang damo, “Sana naman damo, lalo pang tumingkad ang berdeng kulay mo at ‘wag na ‘wag kang matutuyo.” He passed the grass, "I hope it's grass, your green color will be brighter and you won't dry up."

Napapansin din ni Khalai ang mga ligaw na bulaklak, “Tuloy niyo lang ang pamulaklak, para meron akong pampaganda ng buhok.” Khalai also notices the wild flowers, "Just keep blooming, so I have hair makeup."

Kinakausap din ni Khalai ang puno sa gitna ng iskul, “Plis naman, malaking puno, palaguin mo pa mga sanga para sa lilim mo kami ay makapagbasa.” Khalai also talked to the tree in the middle of the school, "Please, big tree, grow more branches so that we can read under your shade."

May nasasabi rin si Khalai sa mga halamang-bakod, “Magpakatibay kayo, pigilin ninyong makapasok ang masasamang tao.” Khalai also said something to the hedge plants, "Be strong, stop the bad people from entering."

Pagkauwi, pinupuntahan agad ni Khalai ang dalandan, “Hinog na ba mga bunga?” After returning home, Khalai immediately went to the oranges, "Are the fruits ripe yet?"

“Hay naku, hilaw pa rin pala. "Hey, it's still raw. Bukas uli ha, dalandan. Tomorrow again, orange. Pagbibigyan kita at baka meron ng hinog, kahit isa!” I will give it to you and maybe there will be a ripe one, at least one!”
