Te Kakariki raua ko te Kiore
Kakariki. --E Kio e.
Kiore. O!
Kakariki. --Piki ake taua ki runga.
Kiore. --Ko te aha taua i runga?
Kakariki. --Ko te kohi pua rakau.
Kiore. --Heaha te pua rakau?
Kakariki. --He Miro, he Kahikatea.
Kiore. --No raro nei hoki taua, e tama e! No te whakaruarua i a taua e tama ra e!
No raro ngatatatahi enei tangata tokorua te Kiore me te Kakariki.
Na, he hē tera, ki te piki rakau kia kainga nga mea o te manu; no reira tera korero.
