intro song
while the clever rabbits are singing a happy song, a visitor passes by, he is a bush man, and he is
carrying something on his back
Leungo --- hello there, who are you? (with a surprised look)
Leungo: Dumela rra, O bidiwa mang?
Tebbie --- thanks, cz that will make things simple for all of us
Tebbie : Realeboga ka gore jaanong re tla utlwana sentle ba rotlhe
Leungo --- yeah, now first things first, I'd like to know who you are
Leungo: Eee, jaanong a santlha e nne sa ntlha, Ke batla go itse gore o bidiwa mang?
bush man --- Me!, ok,(clearing his throat) My name is bush man, I am a man who lives in the
bush, a hunter, yes a simple hunter, i am the best man of the bush, and my life is based here in
the bush
Motho : Nnna!, (clearing his throat) Leina lame ke Monageng, ke nna mo nageng e bile ke le
motsumi, Motsumi yo motona, Ke itse sengwe le sengwe ka sekwa botshelo jwa me bo ikeegile
ka naga yo ne e.
Monei --- but this is not a bush sir, it's rabbit land
Monei: Golofa ga se sekwa, Ke legae la rona Mebutla
a song
we are the clever rabbits, singing with Ms Shiny day and Mr. clouds introductions

our rabbit ground?

bushman ---- home, down to the jungle, so, where is there a road that leads to the jungle?
Motho: Lapeng, ke welelela le sekwa, jaanong tsela e e yang ko sekweng e fa kae?
Tebbie --- we don't have roads here in the rabbit land, but if you can go to that corner, you shall
find an exit
