[tinkling, airy music icon]
A long time ago, in a land far away, there was a rather poor young couple who had to work very hard to garner what
few belongings they owned. They had a small son, who was rather excitable. Quite often this excitability took the form of him doubling words that he said.
His parents, of necessity, taught him to take good care of all their things, because if something got ruined, they wouldn't be able to replace it for a long time, if ever.
Their most prized possession was the beautifully woven,
colorful carpet covering the floor in the main room.
One day the boy was playing with their dog, Nuku, in the main room. Suddenly, his father, whom he called Humu, was
startled by the boy rushing in and shouting,
"humuhumunukunukuapuaa"!
