kalenjin poem
This could have been a popular poem in the 1930s. It could have been composed by a man waiting for a girl to be circumcised before getting married.
Chamanenyuun Chemolel ago lel,
Chemolel u Lux,
Chamanenyuun Tapletkoi kileet een Koiyeet,
Chumchum keldo kou chubo,
Sindenyuun ne tenden ago koi,
Sabuleen sumei u asungiot,
Tui guut kou lamai,
Tun imwaan chebo maan we chamanenyuun,
Sikosiim poriet ak oreet,
Tii kot Konyool agi mwa chebo man,
Tien we sindenyuun ak iwaske,
Marar kot komuraram kembout,
Waske kou koloon cheka kikal,
Ingowastage Muungenik an meroroginik,
Ingo mong’ temburyot kou Kipchurchurit,
U wee sindeyuun siaparpar ng'otit ak asiim,
Siasim ak awariri kou nderiit,
Sindenyuun nengo nyiim kochumugan muguleldanyun,
Chumugan muguleldanyun kou beek en kirait,
Tule muguledanyun kou beek ab Bogoria,
Tule kou generator.
Asiriri we sendanyun beet ak kemboi,
