Kua rongo matou e kiia ana e kore rawa e whakaorangia ake te Wananga kua mate nei. Inaianei, ko te Waka anake te nupepa kei nga Maori e rongo ai ratou ki nga korero nui o te moto mo nga tikanga e ora ai, e aha ai ranei, ratou; ko te Waka anake te nupepa hei whakapuakanga ma ratou i o ratou whakaaro me o ratou mate kite ao. ISo konei matou ka kii, kia kaha koutou te tautoko i te Waka, ia tangata ia tangata, hei oranga mo koutou, mo te Waka ano hoki. E ora noa atu i nga Maori o tenei motu he nupepa e mahia ana ki to ratou reo ano hei awhina i a ratou, a kite mea e rite ana to ratou ki ta ratou nupepa. Inaianei ko nga Pakeha kai te tautoko i te Waka i ora ai, engari te mea matauranga ki ta matou e whakaaro nei, ka tautoko ano ratou tika ma nga Maori ake ano e manaaki i ta ratou nupepa kia motu ke ite iwi Pakelia. Kite mea ka pae ano te Waka ki uta a muri ake nei ite kore oranga mona, hei reira te pouri ai nga Maori, te kite ai i te he o to ratou whakaaro kore—kite rawa ake kua " tureiti." Kaorc hoki he tangata e tahuri kite mahi i tetahi atu nupepa i muri iho mo te iwi manaaki kore. Engari e pai ana kia kaha ratou katoa kite kohikohi moni —te hiMpene a tenei, te herengi a tera—e ora ai te Waka, e toa ai hoki te whakapuaki korero mo te taha ki a ratou, e kore ai hoki e wehi ki nga mahi a etahi tu Pakeha o te motu e tohe nei kia whakatikia te Waka kia mate. Ma nga rangatira o nga hapu e whakahau kia manaakitia tenei taonga.
