[English - literal]
They were traveling along and then somebody an antelope killed.
They butchered it when the chief came up.
The antelope butchered he saw and the udders he took.
And then later the other chief came up and the udders he wanted.
But the other chief "No" he said not he granted.
And then the other one: "The other half give me!" he said.
And then the other one "No" he said.
And already this one was angry and now own men and women
all he gathered and now they traveled off apart.
Those (are the ones that) somewhere traveled off.
And now not it is known where they went.
Maybe somewhere they are staying.
"The udder-angry travelers off" always they call them.
Somewhere there are Kiowa people.
That is all the story.

[English - freestyle]
The people were traveling along and someone killed an antelope and butchered it. When a chief came along he saw the butchered antelope and took the udders. Later, another chief came along and wanted the udders. But the first chief refused and did not grant him. "Give me half" demanded the second one. But again the first one refused. Now the second chief became angry so he gathered all the men and women who followed him and they traveled off apart. It is not known where those went to. "Those who traveled off angry because of the udders" they call them. Somewhere there are other Kiowa. That is all the story.
