E Pa, kei te mokemoke ahau kia koe. Kei te mokemoke te Runanga O Te Haahi Katorika. Aue! Aue! Haere i o tupuna e Pa, haere, haere, haere. I am so sad that I will never see you again e Pa; your wairua will always remain with those of us whom you touched. Your reo, your understanding mo nga Maori Katorika and you were a wonderful faithful servant of our Loving Lord. I will always remember you e Pa; we often had our little laughs together when we met for Runanga hui.
