Come on Satish, How are you?

YO Satisha, Kashshi assa thu?

I am all right Mohan. I was shocked to hear the news of your father’s death. I was not in station. So I could not come. He was healthy. Isn’t it?
Haanv aaraameri assa Mohana. Thugele annaan gellele aikunu manaak bhaaree bEjaaru jalle. Haanv gaanvaanthu naashilo. Thashshi jaavnu evchyaak jaayni. Thani aarOgyaanthu ashshileenchi navE?

He was healthy. But since last few days he was seriously ill.
Thani aarOgyaanthu ashshileenchi. Jallyaari kaLwalele swalp dheesaa thulyaan masth hushaar naashile.

Why? Have you not taken him to a good doctor?
Kasalyaak? Laaik doctoraalaggi thanka aponu varnivE?

All types of treatment were given. But it was what we were destined.
Pooraa namnyaache treatment dheevnu jallele. Jallyaari amgele haNebarapaanthu ashshilE ithlEchi.

Don’t be sorry. He has done his duty by giving you education and taking care of you. You have done your duty. You should not show your grief in front of your mother. You should be live as if u are happy.
BEjaar kOrnaka. Thukka sikOnu hODu kOrnu thani thangele karthavya kella. Thuvai thugele karthavya kella. Thoo thugele ammaale edhraak bEjaaru koruk najj. Thangele edhraak hastaachi aska.

Let it be.
Thashee javvo.

How is your mother?
Thugele amma kashshi assa?

She is healthy. She is trying to forget my dad.
Thee aarOgyaari assa. Migele annaak visoruk prayathna karthaas.

I pray God to give her strength to overcome that grief. By the bye you have come here for how many days of leave?
Thyaa dooki vaggi voccho mONu haanv dyaavalaggi magtha. SangilemaNke thoo kithle deesaache rajEnthu aila?

I have come on a weeks leave. But as my mother has to be alone in Mysore, I have decided to resign my job at Shimoga.
Haanv Ek vaaraache rajEnthu aila. Jallyaari hanga mysoraanthu amman ekleechi aska mONu shimogaache kaamk raajinaame divya mONu haanve nirdhaar kella.

After resigning what are you going to do in Mysore?
Kaamaak raajinaame deevnu mysoraanthu kasane kartha thu?

Already I have offers from three – four companies in Mysore. I select the best and join.
Makka attachee mysorche theen chaari company thani kaamaak apaila. Kanche laaik mONu poLonu sErvatha.

Do like that. It will be good for you and your mother if you are in Mysore.
Tasheechi kari. Thoove mysoraanthu aslyaari thukai thughele ammaakai laaik.

That is true.
Thyaa baddh.

So Mohan, I will leave. I have got some urgent work. See you in your house in the evening.
Thasllyaari Mohan, Haanv bhaaisartha. Makka edhEchi urgent kaam assa. Thughele gharkaDek sanjeri Evnu thukka meLtha.

That’s all right. We will meet again.
Thashee jaaith. Apaas meLya.
