I ia tau i muri i te Hakari o te Koanga, inā koa i muri i te hararei hotoke, he tokomaha o tā mātou kamupene me ōku hoa e whakarērea ana ā rātou mahi i runga i te hiahia, e whakamahi ana i te whānau, i ngā kaumātua, i ngā hoa, i ngā take whaiaro rānei hei whakamārama.
E tino mārama ana ahau ki te katoa. Kāore he oranga o te tangata e kore he raruraru, me tōku anō hoki.
Engari e hiahia ana ahau ki te kī atu i tētahi mea:
He maha ngā mea o te ao e ahua nui ana i tēnei wā, engari i te roanga o te wā, ka kore noa iho.
Ko te mea e pupuri ana i a koe mō te wa katoa ehara i te mea ko ētahi atu, ko te ao o waho rānei,
engari ko tō ake pūkenga, tōu whakapono ki a koe anō me tōu uara.
Ina kaha koe, ina whai rawa koe, ina kaha, ina whai kawenga hoki koe,
ka taea te whakatau i aua mea e kīia nei he uauatanga.
Engari ki te ngāwari noa iho tō whakarērea te tipu, te whakarērea ngā whai wāhitanga, te whakarērea te mahi moni,
ka uaua haere ngā rā kei te heke mai, ka kore e taea te whakahaere, ā, ka iti ake te whakaute.
