TSK · Hopa 4:2

Me korero ahau, kia ta ai toku manawa; ka puaki toku mangai, ka whakahoki kupu ahau.

A ki te ki ahau, E kore ahau e whakahua i a ia, e kore ano hoki e korero i runga i tona ingoa a muri ake nei; na ka ka i roto i toku ngakau me te mea he ahi e ngiha ana, tutaki iho ki roto ki oku whenua, a ka ruha ahau i te koromaki, a kahore e t aea e ahau te pupuri.

He nui hoki no te pouri, no te mamae o te ngakau, i tuhituhi atu ai ahau ki a koutou me nga roimata maha: ehara i te mea hei whakapouri i a koutou, engari kia matau ai koutou ki toku aroha e hira rawa nei ki a koutou.
