The Greatfather made a story about the idea of stories.

The wind makes might: the One Who Is hears about that.
The water makes good food: the One Who Is hears about that.
The One Who Is grows unhappy with the unwanted distance.
Therefore we must say that the Greatfather hears us well.

The tree makes the house healthy: the One Who Is sees that.
The child is frightened by night: the One Who Is sees that.
The One Who Is sees the couple after mating.
Therefore we must say that the Greatfather sees us well.

There is one "word" in the interlinear for each word of the Lojban, though
I have not taken pains to make them line up. [Neither have I! I'm sorry, just too
exhausting!]

(S) = sentence separator;
(P) = paragraph separator;
(-) = untranslated particle.

Phonology: as in IPA except "y" = [@], "c" = [S], "j" = [Z],
"'" = [h], "." = [?]; stress is penultimate.
