Ko te 'akamātūtū atu'anga i tā tā'au tamaiti tā'anga'anga i tōna reo

'E mea pu'apinga ma'ata te reo! 'E mea pu'apinga ma'ata te tuatua! Kua koropini'ia tātou 'e tēia mea 'e reo. 'E mea tau 'ē te mānea kia tā-'anga'anga kāpiti kōrua ko tā'au tamaiti i tē reira reo i te au ngā'i kātoatoa ... i tēta'i 'ua atu taime. 'E ngā mea tūtaki-kore'ia te reo 'ē te manako. 'Inā rā, nōātu tē reira, 'e mea pu'apinga ma'ata – mei te toka memeitaki rāi te tū. Ka rauka-ngō'ie iā koe i te 'ōronga i tē reira ki tā'au tamaiti. Kia rava tō'ou tuātau ka 'ōronga nō tā'au tamaiti, nō te mea, mē pērā kōrua, tē tauturū ra kōrua tēta'i ki tēta'i i te kimi kite 'ōu. Kia 'akareka 'ua rāi, 'ē kia 'akarākei 'ua rāi koe i tā'au tā'anga'anga'anga i tēia mea 'e reo. 'E pu'apinga ma'ata tē ka rauka mai nō kōrua ko tā'au tamaiti – i tēia tuātau poto nei ki mua, 'ē i te au tuātau roa ki mua.
