@tyson9367 if your cuzzin wrote this waiata than hw old is he/she coz iv known this song all my life & im 23 & i also know exactly who wrote this song i have a copy of the original which was writin in the 40s so i do say kia tupato when "Claiming" who wrote this song..
@savannahferris I'm from Canada. My family is from Germany, so I guess you COULD call me Pakeha, though I don't live in NZ. ^.^ Just a lover of languages and music.
Kia Ora ka mau te pai wahine's havent heard dis song in ages its good dat ur bringing bak da Maori culture Tu Tangata Tonu do our country proud kakite
Can anyone give us a good English translation of this? Aue te aroha i ahau, aue Aue e te iwi e E te iwi Maori puritia kia mau, Utaina ki runga i te waka o te ora Ka hoe ai ki te tauranga. Ko te kupu a te Kaiwhakaora, A Hehu tino aroha Wetewetekia atu nga ururua E te hunga e mamae ana Ka aru mai ai i ahau. E te iwi whakarongo ake ra, Ki te reo e karanga mai nei Whaia kia mau te kotahitanga He mea paihere na te rangimarie Kia mau ai te rongopai
@Kaikopere For you my people Hold fast to your beliefs And bring them forward into a new life So that we can seek all that is bountiful. This is the word of the Creator, The loving Jesus: ‘Cast away all that is bad So that those once deprived Can now follow me’. Listen you my people To the calling: ‘Pursue the unity of the spirit And combine it with peace So that the Good News reigns’. I had to ask mum but we checked to be sure on the internet :) kia ora

@Kaikopere Once I cried for love, I cried And the people cried as well The Maori Nation held strongly to the promise They heard of accepting the Spirit of Life And they would paddle to the resting place One spoke of a saviour A message of true love And freedom and new life The people ached deeply To follow this way Now the people listen to the heavens Calling them to this way, To stay firm in the promise To speak peace and keep the promise of the gospel
@RainBirdLori I don't claim to know Maori, I just managed to find an online dictionary and gave it my best shot. If I'm way off, feel free to correct me!

@Tekauru, was it Moe Ruka? Just read it on the Maungarongo Marae website and it had her as the te kaitito and it was in the 40s when she wrote it...
