E noi i nā manaʻo
ʻAʻohe hewa i ka nīnau ʻana i nā mākua o ke keiki no nā manaʻo e pili ana i kā lākou keiki makemake. I hoʻokahi makahiki, ua aʻo au he makemake nui kekahi o kaʻu keiki i ka pāʻani keʻena, no laila ua kūʻai mākou i nā lako keʻena no kona lā hānau. Ua aloha ʻo ia iā lākou, a ʻaʻole loa wau i noʻonoʻo i kahi makana maʻamau me ka nīnau ʻole ʻana i kona makuahine.
E hele i ke kāleka makana
