:

I came to learn, but I only pray--

That you someday may look my way.

I feel so lost, so out of touch

I could almost feel you in my clutch.

But you are younger and I fear,

Vicious gossip I'd soon hear.

So I must sit back and nurse my pride

Wishing you were by my side.

Maten liitua, taugaam wii nutan arayulua--

Taua-llu elpet cam ernerm ilini tangerciquten.

Nanluciini, civunerqauni

Elpet-llu nauwim wii teguciqlluten.

Taugaam elpet aiyagyuganruluten cali alinglua,

Niicikngama uputasiyageng.

Tua-i akumkerlua pinircaqerlaku aiyuquciqa

Nunamenikir waniga wiita.
