In a sentence
のど喉throatがかわいた渇いた、is dryみず水waterちょうだいplease
How it works
Two short clauses sit side by side. First the cause: が (subject) marks 喉 (throat) as what's doing the action, and 渇いた (got dry) is the plain past of 渇く (to get dry). Then the request: casual ちょうだい (give me) drops any particle after 水 (water), so it sounds like an everyday "water, please" between friends.
