I can help you in so far that they are counting in Amharic.

and - the meaning for one
hulätt - the meaning for two
sost - the meaning for three
aratt - the meaning for four

...

ammist - the meaning for five
siddist - the meaning for six
säbatt - the meaning for seven

...

simmint - the meaning for eight
zät'äñ - the meaning for nine
assir - the meaning for ten

Also instead of your suggestion:
"I was part... I.. sleep my brother?
my long bridge? is for (...) years"
I hear:
"I was bought as a slave and brought there
My language is prohibited here"
