Non-official toki pona:

sitelen mun pite li lon len pi ma Mewika.

pite = fifty (50)

sitelen pi mun ... -> mun ...

"sitelen pi mun lili mute" is literally "drawings of many small astronomical objects". I probably chose this translation because in this context "star" means "five-pointed star symbol", which is arguably not a "mun" but a "sitelen mun".

"mun lili" is an option to differentiate "star" from "moon", which is also mentioned in lipu ku.
