KUA MATE A OPO na Hoterene Keretene Kahore i mohiotia tera te ika nei a Opo ka tangohia atu e te Atua. He ika tenei i arohaina e te mano kaumatua, tamariki hoki mona i pai ki te whakahoa ki tetahi tamaiti kohungahunga ko Julie Baker, he kotiro pakeha. Na tenei kohine ka rarata a Opo—a ki te korero i pangia te kohine e te mate, a ka noho ki te kainga mo te rua ra. Otira e tutaki ana raua i nga ra katoa i mua atu! Na wai a ka whakamomori a Opo a ka huri ka rapu i te kohine nei. Heoi ano ra e penei ana te korero ka whakamomori te ika ra a haere ana, ki te whakamate ia i a ia ano! Kaati ra he nui te mano i heke nga roimata. i tangi hoki i te rongonga kua mate a Opo. Kei te mohiotia ra nga korero mo tenei ika—heoi ano ta te Maori he korero i ana korero! He ika tenei no te hapu i haerea mai ai e Kupa Aotearoa—a tera pea ko te uri ano tenei o te ika i horomia ai a Hona te poropiti wete a te Atua i tona tononga kia haere ki te kauwhene ki te iwi o Niniwa! Whai hoki he ika aroha ki te tamariki—engari kahore i pai ki te pakeke. I ki ana Hohepa Heperi he ika tapu a Opo—a i heke mai i nga tupuna! Ae pea engari kia manawanui ki nga korero Maori. He pai ki te taringa a he kino ki nga mahara! Anei to kuri tata nei ano o te wa kainga to Tori ranei to poaka ranei to hoiho ranei? Kia pehea enei kararehe aroha!
