E HARA
Kaupapa - Context
"E Hara" is a waiata that may be sung in all Marae and powhiri settings.

 

E hara i te mea
No naianei te aroha
No nga tupuna
Tuku iho tuku iho

Te whenua te whenua
Te oranga o te iwi
No nga  tupuna
Tuku iho tuku iho

Whakapono Tumanako
Te aroha te aroha
No nga tupuna
Tuku iho tuku iho

 

Love and understanding are not recent emotions
They are the things handed down by our ancestors


Land is the source of  wellbeing of the people
Our ancestors hand down these things


Faith, hope and love
These things handed down by our ancestors
