 Tale of the Man in the Moon Part 1 (only):
CHUP ORO USH GURU ORUSHPE. (The Tale of the Man on the
Moon)
  Otde?Ea anakne ona itak unu itak shomo nu, a wakka
tare yakka kopan, aine, kamui irushka gusu, chu-kamui
samata a-ande, moshir?Eebita a-upakashinu gusu an
gun?ne. Chup orush gun?ne. Tambe gusu shinrit itak wen
yakka pirika yakka a-nup ne na. Tambe neyakka
utar?Eobitta nu yan.

In ancient times there was a lad who would neither
obey his father nor his mother, and who even disliked
to fetch water; so, the gods being angry, they put him
in the side of the moon as a warning to all people.
This is the man in the moon. For this reason, let all
the world understand that the words of parents,
whether they be good or evil, must be obeyed.

  For the rest of the Tale please take a look at the
