WhakamĀrama Āpitihanga

Koia nei ētahi whakamahinga o te kupu nei, te mauri, hei tohu i ētahi āhuatanga o te hauora:

Ko te mauri rere. Kua raru pai te mauri, kua ohorere, kua mataku, me te aha, āhua ngaro ana te ao mārama i a koe.*
Ko te mauri tau. E tau ana te mauri, e tau ana te āio ki te tangata, kāore e ohorere, kāore e pōkaikaha.*
Ko te mauri moe. Kāore te tangata e oho ana, kua kore tana urupare, kua kore tana aroā ki ngā āhuatanga o tōna taiao ōkiko, e noho ngū ana. Ki tā ētahi kua rere te hinengaro ki te wāhi ngaro.
Ko te mauri oho. Kua kore e moe te mauri, e urupare ana, e aroā ana te tangata ki ngā āhuatanga o tōna taiao.
Ko te mauri tū. E mataara ana te tangata ki tōna taiao, e whai ngoi ana.
Ko te mauri noho. Kāore te tangata e kori ana, e noho ngū ana tōna tinana, tōna hinengaro me tōna wairua. Ākene pea e moe ana, e whakatā ana, e whakaāio hinengaro ana.
