E ʻawa ana, a e pio aunoa. E koʻi ana, a e pololei. E hohonu ana, a e piha. E kahiko ana, a e hou. ʻIki ana, a e loaʻa. Nui ana, a e pouli. No laila, ʻo ka mea naʻauao, ke paʻa ia i ka hana hoʻokahi no ke ʻano o ka honua. ʻAʻole ikaika iā ia iho, no laila, ʻike ʻia. ʻAʻole aʻa iki iā ia iho, no laila, kaulana. ʻAʻole hōʻae iki iā ia iho, no laila, loaʻa ka hana. ʻAʻole hīʻihia iā ia iho, no laila, mau loa. ʻOiai ʻaʻole ia e aua, ʻaʻohe mea i loko o ka honua e hiki ai ke aua me ia. Ua ʻī ʻia e nā kūpuna, ʻo ka ʻawa ʻana ka pio aunoa, ʻaʻole anei he hōʻoia wale nō? He ʻiʻo loa, a e hoʻi mai nō ia i ka mea nui.

He aha kēia paukū e pili ana?
Hōʻike mai kēia paukū i ka mana o ka ʻawa ʻana - ʻo ka hoʻopiha ʻana i ka ʻī, ka hoʻopiha ʻana i ka hohonu, ka hoʻopiha ʻana i ka kahiko. ʻO ka mea ʻiʻi loa, ʻo ia ka mea nui loa. ʻAʻole e aua ana ka mea ʻaʻole e aua ai, no laila, ʻaʻohe mea e hiki ke aua me ia.
Pehea ka pilina iaʻu?
Ua aʻo mai kēia paukū iaʻu e hoʻomaha i ka ikaika, a e ʻawa i nā mea. Ma ka ʻawa ʻana, ʻaʻole wau e luku ʻia, akā, e loaʻa iaʻu ka pio aunoa. ʻO kēia mea he haʻawina nui no kuʻu ʻuhane.
He aha kaʻu e hana ai i kēia lā?
I kēia lā, e ʻawa wau i ka mea e hoʻoikaika nei au e alualu. E hoʻomaha wau a e kuʻika i ka ʻī. E haʻi aku wau i ka ʻuhane ʻAwa, ʻaʻole ka hoʻoikaika ʻana iā ia iho.
The partial becomes complete; the crooked, straight; the empty, full; the worn out, new. He whose (desires) are few gets them; he whose (desires) are many goes astray. Therefore the sage holds in his embrace the one thing (of humility), and manifests it to all the world. He is free from self-display, and therefore he shines.
