Translation

The sky was dark and was going to rain,
Grandpa dug with a hoe wanting to dig taros,
Dug and dug, dug and dug, Dug out an eel-like fish,
i-iaq-hef-to (it was) really interesting.
Grandpa wanted to cook it salty, Grandma wanted to cook it bland,
Two fought each other and broke the pan,
i-iaq-hef-to loxng-toxng-chid-toxng-chiaxng.
