ʻAʻole pono nā manu. E kūʻai i kahi keʻena nui aʻoi aʻe ke kikowaena, e hoʻolei aku i nā pepa kiko'ī, e hoʻopiha i ka one momona - ua mākaukau ka hale manu! Hoʻolohe wale nōʻo ia i hoʻokahi manawa i nā lāʻelua a mai hoʻopoina i ka wai a hānai i ka hoa pili. Me nā hānai, loaʻaʻole,ʻaʻohe pilikia: i loko o nā hale kūʻai pipi ua kūʻaiʻia nā hui kūikawā me nā huaʻilia o ka millet, kaʻaila, ka huaʻala a me ka pua puaʻa. Eia ma nāʻano maʻamau a me nā mālama a pau. Hoʻoholo waleʻia ka mea manu i ka home a naniʻo "aupuni manu" e loaʻa ai.
ʻO ke kūlana kiʻekiʻe - kekahi o nā'elepa o ka "manu manu" Ke noho nei kēia mau mea nani i nā mea ola ma Australia,ʻApelika a me Kona Hema. Ua laweʻia lākou iʻEulopa e nā luina. I kēia mau lā,ʻo nā amadins kekahi o nā manu nani. Aia i waena o lākou ka hoʻolālā (me ka beak nuiʻeleʻele) a me nā astralds (heʻoi aku ka lahilahi o ka beak aʻoi aku ka nani). ʻO ka mele a ke kāne a me nāʻelele he mālie, akā he mahalo a he mahalo. Aʻo kekahi poʻeʻaʻole wale i ka mele, akā,ʻo ... hula paha: ke'ōwili a hoʻoluliluli paha ke kāne, nā hulu manu'ōpiopio, lele i nā wahine, e hana i nāʻano pā a pau. Ma ke ala,ʻo nā astralds a me nā amadine, he mau mea hauʻoli ia: ua noho like lākou me kekahi i kekahi. I loko o ka pā e hiki iāʻoe ke hōʻiliʻili i kahi hui lehulehu.
No nā kānaka noho o ka home a he nani hoʻi ka "manu manu". ʻO ka manawa wale nō iʻikeʻia ai nā kāpili wavy aʻike waleʻia i loko o nā pūnaela kālā a me nā kiponi'eponi. Ua hoʻolimalimaʻia nā manu e nā kumu kūikawā, a aʻoʻia iā lākou i "nā'ōlelo aʻo" i kēlā me kēia lā. I kēia manawa, i hiki ai ke "kamaʻilio" i ke kolo,ʻaʻole ponoʻoe e kono i ke kumu. Hiki iāʻoe ke lilo iāʻoe iho. Eia kekahi, uaʻikeʻia uaʻike nuiʻia kēia mau manu e nā leo wahine a me nā keiki,ʻoi aku ka māmā aʻoi aʻe i ka hoʻohālikeʻana me nā kāne. E kamaʻilio pinepine aku iā lākou i kekahi manawa, a me ka mālie, a wikiwiki ka'ōlelo a kāu manu! ʻO nā kāne ma kēiaʻano, uaʻoi aku ka ikaika ma mua o nā wāhine, a he mau hua'ōlelo maʻalahi ka'ōlelo - a hiki i nā hua'ōlelo he haneri. Ma ke ala, hiki i nā'aloka ke kope pololei i nā manu a me nā meaʻai. He hauʻoli wale nō ke kaniʻana o kahi pīpī e like me ke canary, aiʻole nā hīmeni e like me ka'īlio.
Hiki ke hoʻohui likeʻia kona "aupuni manu" a me ka canary leo. Kāhea houʻia kona inoa i nā'āina'ē - nā mokupuniʻo Canary, kahi iʻikeʻia a loheʻia e nā mea hoʻokele Spanish a me Pokiki. ʻO ka canar e hoʻonani ai iā lākou me kāna mele i lawe nā luina me kekahi mau manu me lākou. Ma ka lāʻumikumamālima a me kaʻumikumamāono, he nui loa nā canaries i'Europa. Hāʻawi waleʻia lākou i nā mō'ī. Heʻelua wale nō mau kenekulia ma hope mai, ua hiki i kēia manu uila nani a nani i hiki i ka make kanaka. ʻAuheaʻoe i mālamaʻole ai i kēia mau manu! ʻAʻole hiki iāʻoe ke manaʻoʻiʻo i ia mea, akā,ʻoiai ... ma nā mines. Ua hoʻomaopopoʻia e kaʻawaʻawa o nā canaries i keʻala o ke kino, i ka wā i lilo ai ka manu i meaʻino, "ua haʻalele koke nā kānaka i kaʻu. I kēia manawa, ua loaʻa nā canne no muli wale nō o ko lākou mau mele. Ua helu nā mea kūikawā i loko o nā mele canaries, aiʻole kenar (meleʻia e nā kāne), a hiki iʻumikumamālima mau'āpana kālā! ʻO kaʻoiaʻiʻo,ʻaʻole nā kenele a pau nā mele mele. He nui ka poʻe e aʻoʻia. No kēia, ua kanuʻia kekahi manu'ōpiopio i kahi mea iʻike nuiʻia aiʻole e loaʻa ana nā phonograms me ke mele mele.
Ināʻikeʻoe i kahi wahi liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi a loaʻa kēia home a naniʻo "aupuni manu", a laila,ʻaʻoleʻoe e mihi. Eʻikeʻoe i ka hopena wale nō, pehea ka maikaʻi, ke hoʻi maiʻoe i ka home mai ka hana, eʻike i kou hauʻoli, a hiki iāʻoe ke kamaʻilio. ʻAno a leʻaleʻa.
