KARAKIA NŌ PAINGA PROJECT
ME HE WAI
l a taatou hoononga i te waa nei,
l a taatou waananga i te raa nei,
Me he wai
E hurikiko ai te tai,
Araa, ka pari, ka timu,
ka piki, ka heke,
Me mapu ki te puutake
Ko te tamaiti te puutake o te kaupapa,
Aa, kia uu
Haumi e, hui e ... taaiki e
BE LIKE WATER
Within the connections we hold at this time, In the deliberations we make during this day, We will be like water
The tide rhythmically about-turns,
That is to say, its ebbs, its flows,
it rises, it falls,
We will flow freely towards our purpose
The child is at the heart of the matter
We will be resolute
United, gathered and called to action
