Lolotonga ʻa e tuli manu ʻa Nīfai ʻi ha ʻaho ʻe taha, naʻe motu ʻene kaufana ukameá. He ʻikai lava ke maʻu ha meʻakai ʻa e ngaahi fāmilí ka ʻikai ia. Naʻe ʻita ʻa e ngaahi tokoua ʻo Nīfaí kiate ia pea mo e ʻEikí.
Naʻa nau fuʻu helaʻia mo fiekaia kotoa. Naʻe loto-mamahi hanau niʻihi pea nau lāunga. Naʻa nau ilifia naʻa nau mate fiekaia. Naʻe lāunga mo Līhai ki he ʻEikí.
Naʻe ngaohi ʻe Nīfai ha kaufana foʻou mo ha ngahau ʻaki ha ʻakau. Naʻá ne tui ʻe tokoniʻi ia ʻe he ʻEikí ke ne ʻilo ha meʻakai.
Naʻe fehuʻi ʻe Nīfai kia Līhai pe ko e fē ʻa e feituʻu ʻe ʻalu ʻo tuli manu aí. Naʻe loto-mamahi ʻa Līhai ʻi heʻene lāungá. Naʻá ne fakatomala ʻo kole tokoni ki he ʻEikí. Naʻe folofola ʻa e ʻEikí kia Līhai ke vakai ki he Liahoná. Naʻe hiki ai ha pōpoaki. Naʻe ʻilo ʻe he ngaahi fāmilí naʻe toki ngāue pē ʻa e Liahoná ʻi he taimi naʻa nau tui ai ki he ʻEikí mo talangofua ki he ngaahi fekaú.
Naʻe liliu ʻe he ʻEikí he taimi ʻe niʻihi ʻa e pōpoaki ʻi he Liahoná ke tokoniʻi kinautolu lolotonga ʻenau ngaahi fefonongaʻakí. Naʻe tokoniʻi ʻe he Liahoná ʻa Nīfai ke ne ʻiloʻi ʻa e feituʻu ke tuli manu aí. Naʻá ne foki mai mo ha meʻakai ke nau kai, pea naʻa nau fiefia kotoa. Naʻa nau fakatomala pea fakamālō ki he ʻEikí.
