UMA nuu, Ninome elapu.
Bojoeme ilo.
Igono nemenigome igono noolu tamanuu.
Neve iloo damode too fasimio sika damode.
Nika nigage tekamauli emeto tamee meto motapenisu,
tekamauli ejoo kale nigake metoo.
Sasanabuene ke vono, nive metoo sake vono at e.
Mojo emee ia suge, vinio imumua, igono, igono.
Amen.
