ʻOku fuʻu lahi fau ʻa e moʻuí. ‘Oku lahi fau e meʻa ʻoku toka mei muʻá! ‘Oku lahi fau e meʻa ʻe lava ke hokó! ‘Oku lahi fau e meʻa te u lava ʻo faí! ʻOku lōmekina e ngaahi faingamālié he taimi ʻe niʻihi.

ʻI heʻene fekauʻaki mo e kahaʻú, ʻoku lahi fau ha ngaahi fehuʻi, ka ʻoku ʻuhinga pē ia ʻoku lahi fau e meʻa ʻe malavá. ʻOku ʻi ai foki mo e meʻa te tau malava—ha tuʻunga malava fakalangi ke hoko ʻo hangē ko ʻetau Tamai Hēvaní mo Hono ʻAlo ko Sīsū Kalaisí.

Pea ko e meʻa ia ʻoku nāunauʻia ai hotau kahaʻú.
