Naʻá ku nofo ʻi Siapani ʻi heʻeku tupu haké. Naʻe kau hoku fāmilí ki he tui fakalotu faka-Putá, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi fāmili tokolahi ʻi ai. Naʻe ʻi ai ha ʻaho ne u feʻiloaki ai mo e ongo faifekau ʻa e Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻo e Kau Māʻoniʻoni ʻi he Ngaahi ʻAho Kimui Ní. Naʻá ku maʻu ha ongo makehe fekauʻaki mo kinaua. Naʻá ku loto ke u hangē ko kinauá.
ʻI heʻeku kau ki he Siasí, ko e toko taha pē ʻi hoku ʻapiakó naʻe hoko ko ha mēmipa ʻo e Siasí. Naʻe faingataʻa ʻa e hoko ko ha mēmipa pē ʻe taha ʻo e siasí ʻi he ʻapiakó.
