Naʻe lolotonga tokoto ha kiʻi tamasiʻi taʻu valu ʻi he funga tēpile faiʻanga tafá ʻi ha falemahaki ʻe taha. Kuo mālōlō ʻene ongo mātuʻá, ka naʻe ʻosi ako ʻa e tamasiʻí ke lotu. Naʻá ne ʻiloʻi ko e tafa lahi ʻe faí. Ko ia naʻá ne kole ange ai ki he toketā naʻe te u ke ne fai hono tafá. “ʻE toketā, fai ange muʻa ha lotu maʻaku peá ke toki kamata hoʻo tafá?” Naʻe ofo ʻa e toketaá ʻi heʻene vakai atu ki he tamasiʻí peá ne pehē ange, “He ʻikai ke u lava ʻo fai ha lotu maʻau.”
Naʻe toe kole ʻa e kiʻi tamasiʻí ki he kau toketā kehe naʻe tokoni ki he fai tafá pea naʻe tatau pē ʻa ʻenau talí. Naʻe pehē ange leva ʻe he kiʻi tamasiʻí, “Kapau he ʻikai ke mou lotu maʻaku, fēfē ke mou kiʻi tatali kau fai pē ʻe au ʻa ʻeku lotú?” Naʻá ne tūʻulutui pē ʻi he funga tēpile tafá, kūnima peá ne lea ʻo pehē, “ʻE Tamai Hēvani, ko ha kiʻi tamasiʻi paea au, ka ʻoku ou fuʻu puke lahi pea ʻoku te u ke tafa au ʻe he kau toketā ko ʻení. Fakamolemole muʻa ka ke tokoniʻi kinautolu ke nau fai ia ki hono totonú. Pea kapau te ke fakamoʻui au Tamai Hēvani, te u hoko ko ha tamasiʻi lelei. Mālō hoʻo fakamoʻui aú.”
Ko ʻene ʻosi pē ʻa ʻene lotú kuo fakatē loʻimata kotoa ʻa e kau toketaá mo e kau nēsí.
