“ The daughter of a tigeress
The prophetess of the three headed python
The one who has the opa ase to rule the two areeonakakafo of the seven skies
The eigh legged mother of the ten deities
Flowing in the egg of an eagle
The ten eyed sparrow that whistle the songs of the hunter
The queen of the forest that all creatures fear
The one whose bed is a black stick
Striking thousands on her left
Ten thousands on her right
The one whose legs are like the fox
But also like the tortoises
Every night she sings the oriki
The day, her waist beads tinkles“
