Yeffeɣ Kino seg uxxam, iquddimen-is ẓẓayit, tluḥeq-it Juana i ibubben Coyotito. Mi id-fukken s tiklitabridt n lḥara n yigurbiyen yellandeg lexluxen ččan waman n tḥemmalin, kcemen deg ubrid yettawin ɣer taddart, yufa-d lḥal nernan-d ɣur-sen lǧiran.

I mi taluft ur telli d asqecmeε, yiwen urgaz kan i itteddun ɣer yidis n Kino, d gma-s Juan Tomas.
Yebda Juan yessettwillih gma-s: “ Ilaq ad tεusseṭ iman-ik, ur ten-ttaǧǧa ara ad ak-ṭebbṛen.”
Yerra-as Kino: “ Ad εusseɣ iman-iw nezzeh!”
Yerna Juan Tomâs yenna: “Nekni ur nessin ara leswam n tidet, acḥal i ttxelliṣen deg yimukan niṭinin. Amek ara neεlem s leswam lεali, ma yella ur nessin ara acḥal id-ttakken tteǧǧar n tiεeqqcin?”
Yenna-as Kino: “Ih, aya d tidet. Amek ara neεlem? Nekni nezdeɣ da mačči dinna.”
Deg ubrid-nsen ɣer Temdint, yettnerni lɣaci deffir-sen,  Juan Tomâs ikemmel awal-is, yerna iban iqleq: “ Qbel ad tlaleṭ, a Kino, xemmemen imeqqranen-nneɣ ɣef wamek ara d-gren xilla yidrimen seg tεeqquci i snuzun.
