The milkiwaru and dukadukapi are regarded as the kapara of the water-birds, because they were the first to be named by the muramura. Hence they were the first, and all other water-birds are their mili or followers.
milkiwaruja ja dukadukapia mili paja pratjana nganai, tana ngapani ngamai
of the milkiwaru and of the dukadukapi followers birds all are, they in water sit
all birds [that live] in the water are the followers of the milkiwaru and of the dukadukapi
