El partido de fútbol y una película

Anei māua ko Aroha e mātakitaki ana i te kēmu poiwhana i waenganui i a Aotearoa me Chile, 2 - 0. Engari te panapana o te manawa! Kāore rawa e tau, ahakoa ngā pisco sours. Kātahi anō a Chile ka whiwhi ki tō rātou piro tuatahi, ¡un gol espectácular!

Inākuanei hoki mai ai māua i te whare pikitia. I mātakitaki i te pikitia Ceguera (Kāpō). I a au i México i pānui au i te pukapuka a José Saramago, Ensayo Sobre La Ceguera. E whai pai ana te pikitia i te pukapuka. Ko te kaupapa ko te pā o te kāpō ki ngā tāngata o te ao – engari he rere kē. Kāore...

U! I tata whiwhi piro anō a Chile! Kia tūpato Aotearoa! Auē, he whana kokonga! Ā, ka pai, kāore i ū!

Tēnā, kāore...

Ka pai! Kua whiwhi piro anō a Aotearoa, 3 - 1! Hū! He uaua te tuhituhi i te rātaka nei.

Heoi, kāore ngā karu e hemo, arā, kāore e kite i te pango, ka mā kē, ānō e toromi ana i te miraka.

He piro anō tō Aotearoa, 4 - 1!

Hingahinga haere ngā tāngata i te mate rā, ā, ka mau motuhake (ānō he herehere) i roto i tētahi hohipera tawhito, kei peke te mate ki tangata kē. Engari, kāore i roa, ka tokomaha noa atu te hunga kāpō, ā, ka kitea te hanga pai me te hanga kino o te tangata. Ko tētahi o ngā kaupapa e mea ana...

Aī! He piro anō tō Chile, 4 – 2! ¡Sé fuerte, Nueva Zelanda!

E mea ana me mātua kāpō pea, kia tino kite. Kei mau i ngā whakaaro i tā te tangata e kite ana. Otirā, he pikitia tino pai rawa.

Na, kia hoki ki te kēmu. He whana kokonga. Auē, kua whiwhi a Percival ki te kāri whero. Ko te āhua nei kei te riri rawa ia... Ahakoa rā, he pai rawa te tākaro a ngā wāhine o te kāinga.

Kia tūpato he piro anō tō Chile, 4 – 3! E rua noa iho ngā mēneti kei te toe, kia tūpato! Ka pai, kua mutu! Engari te hunga oraiti! Engari ngā chilenas e tangitangi ana!

Ka moe pai a te pō nei!
