Navê min Malik e û ez 39 salî me. Ez li Afxanistanê hatime dinyayê. Ola min ji ola sereke ya Afxanistanê cuda ye.
My name is Malik and I am 39 years old. I was born in Afghanistan. My religion is different from the main religion in Afghanistan.
Gelek salan mirovên ku ji ola min; dihatin çewisandin. Ev ji bo malbata min pir zehmet bû.
For many years, people who belong to my religion have been persecuted. This has been very difficult for my family.
Çend sal berê li welatê min şer hebû. Ez ditirsiyam ku ez bêm kuştin. Min malbata xwe li wir hêla û ez çûm Ewropayê û min dest bi jiyaneke nû kir.
A few years ago there was a war. I was afraid I would be killed. I left my family to go to Europe and start a new life.
Min gelek kîlometre li ser piyan derbas kir. Carinan cihê ku ez lê bimînim û xwarin tunebû. Hin kesên ku ez pê re geriyam mirin.
I walked for many kilometres. Sometimes I had no food and nowhere to stay. Some of the people I travelled with died.
Di dawiyê de ez gihîştim. Min hin kesên ji welatê xwe dîtin ku alîkariya min kirin. Ez nizanim bêyî wan min ê çi bikira.
Finally I arrived. I met some people from my own country who helped me. I do not know what I would have done without them.
Min dest bi fêrbûna ziman kir, lê zehmet bû. Min dizanibû ku ji bo bidestxistina kar, axaftina zimanekî girîng bû.
I started to learn the language, but it was hard. I knew that speaking the language was important to get a job.
Di destpêkê de ji bo fêrbûna ziman min çend salan xwend. Zehmet bû, lê ez ji fêrbûna tiştên nû kêfxweş dibim.
I studied for several years, at first to learn the language. It was hard, but I enjoy learning new things.
Piştî xwendinê min dest bi xebatê kir. Pêşî ez li xwaringehekê xebitîm, paşê ez bûm mamoste ji ber ku min dixwest alîkariya kesên din bikim.
After studying I started working. First I worked in a restaurant, and then I became a teacher because I want to help others.
Ez hêvî dikim ku rojekê vegerim Afganistanê. Gelek kesên li wir hewcedarê alîkariyê ne û ez dixwazim alîkariya wan bikim.
I hope to go back to Afghanistan one day. Many people there need help, and I want to help them.
