I am a proud Pakeha New Zealander; who is so thankful the Maori; who had their heritage denied many years ago, have finally found their way back to their roots. Be proud of who you are. You are special people, I am proud to have stood beside many of you all my life. Aroha. Kia Kaha.

This song always hits hard for me. Lost the love of my life 5 years ago. He was Maori and I always loved hearing of his mother's culture as our relationship flourished. I miss him so much. The tears never stop while this plays, but I suppose it helps a bit. Still feels as it was yesterday that he left us. Ka nui taku aroha ki a koe. ❤ "Me tangi, kāpā ko te mate i te marama."

Tino ataahua te waiata. I first heard this waiata at my nephews wedding and i thought what a beautiful waiata. Not quite understanding the kupu but definitely felt the aroha, passion, soul and wairua. Bought tears to my eyes with feelings of gratefulness, thankfulness and humility. This will be my song to walk down the aisle on my wedding day on the 30th January 2021. Nei ra te Mihi Rob and Maisey for such a beautiful waiata.
