Ill-bred Children
 
(English)
 
Some ill-bred children leave their homes at nights and come to my gateway to make noise.
The hungry hooligans frequently come here with their unruliness.
The worthless girls and boys hang out on the roadside all night and talk nonsense.
The noisy children do not respect the people who live around here.
I do not know why their parents allow them to go on the road like loose, wild beasts.
 
The woman who runs the shop claims that she is a Christian, yet she supports their disorderly conduct.
She harbours the parasites out here because she wants them to buy things in her shop.
Sometimes she gives them things to make herself look good in the community.
She is trying to make friends with me, but I do not keep company with covetous people.
She behaves as if she is nice, but I do not trust her because she is a hypocrite.
 
The loafers always come here around seven o’clock, but I have not seen them yet.
It seems that no free food is at the shop tonight to hold the dirty niggers.
The adults who live around here cannot control the ill-bred children.
From the day I was born until now, I have never seen people so illiterate and foolish.
All the people who live in the community behave like blasted zombies.
