Translation 



I was filled with gladness 



Big seals on hearing about. 



The men, when they kept hunting them at their breath- 

 ing holes, 



On to the ice-floe down thither, pulling them up. 



Ilwas filled with gladness — 



The yellow-billed loon it called kau. 



What is here, this one, my phrase [the words I should 

 have used] — 



To the water-hole I went and snared it [loon]. 



Let me go and walk, 



Along the sand let me go and walk. 



People I probably not seeing, 



Along the sand let me go and walk. 



My adopted child when I saw him, 



Him of whom I had been thinking, that one, I was 

 thankful [?]
