Ball Boy
May 28, 2019
By the storytellers at St. Joseph Ward, St. Vincent de Paul
That's my youngest brother
He's 5 or 8 years old He's from Kalkara.
He's bending over and throwing it here and there.
He's stretching out - Cikku
He plays Bocci Bocci or Football ? Football.
When it gets windy that ball is going to move.
He's very strong.
He's a Hero going up for that ball
He'll try again
When he's older he will become a footballer with Hamrun Spartans or Bormla
Perhaps an English Teacher.
He's an only child - loved by all.
That ball hit the pole and is turning towards him. What I want to know is how he made it up there ! -------

Dak hija z-zghir
Ghandu hames snin jew 8 Mill Kalkara.
Qed jipprova jitbaxxa U jwadbu l'hemm u l'hawn.
Qed jixxabbat - Cikku Dak jilghab il-Bocci Bocci jew Futbol? Futbol.
Meta jagheml ir-rih dak il-ballun jiccaqlaq.
He's very strong.
Kemm hu 'Hero' telgha ghal ballun
He'll try again
Meta jikber ser isir futballer mal Hamrun Spartans jew Bormla Jew Teacher tal Ingliz.
M'ghandux hutu ghax tifel wahdu - mahbub minn kulhadd.
Il-ballun habatlu mal-arblu u rega dar lejh.
Kif telgha hemm fuq irrid nkun naf !
