My Matrilineal Peuwpeuw
My motherland is call Feni
I belong to my mother's clan Korafi
I belong to my mother's Hausboi Natem
To get through life we have to faim tem (work together)
My mother's brother I call kang
My mother's sister I call dong
My brothers are my fefneklik
My sisters are my kisiklik
My mother's uncles I call koko
My mother's only sister is Tinwok
My grandmother is Tinbutut
Their relatives extend from Famanon to Nambutu
My mother's brother is my maimai
He is in charge of our hausboi and nal (land)
Our lifestyle is represented by the women's dikanfeuw
(open coconut baskets)
And this, this is my matrilineal peuwpeuw (traditional
story)
