Mai nga kuri a wharei ki tihirau

Mihi

 

E noho ana i te koko ki Ohiwa
Whakarongo rua aku taringa ki te tai o tua o kanewa
E aki ana mai ki uta ra
Ki te whanau a Tairongo
Ko Tauwhare te koopu o te ururoa
Ko te kai rari noa mai
Te Raweketia a te ringringa


As I sit at Ohiwa
I listen to the tide beating against the foreshore at Kanewa
The home of my ancestor Tairongo
My mind wanders back to Tauwhare
The birth place of the shark
And the foodbasket of many hands.
