KAORE HE PENE
Ka hanga ngā kupu kau i ngā rerenga kōrero koretake
ka noho hei kōrero teka kau i roto i te whakapono
ko tāu e kōrero nei
koia te mea e hiahia ana te iwi kia rongo
He moana whānui te rotarota
o ngā pono kare ā-roto
i tangohia mai i
ngā wheako ngākau nui
He pikitia peita ngā whiti
i waenganui i ngā rārangi kikorangi angiangi
me te paraihe o te pene
i runga i te kānawehi pepa
Ehara i te mea koinei te āhua o te pānui i te rotarota
engari me pēhea te pānga ki a koe
ehara i te āhua o te whiti
engari he aha tāu e kite nei?
Koinei te pūkenga
o te tohunga rotarota
ko wai e peita ana i tētahi pikitia
me te pene anake
Kia taea ai e rātou te whakarato
te hunga i ngaro i te pōuriuri
he tirohanga - he ataahua
he māramatanga – he tumanako

Mō te hunga katoa e mamae ana
kua mamae
ka mamae
Ngā mate whakararuraru o ngā mate hinengaro
Mō te hunga e arohaina ana e mātakitaki noa ana
heoi anō, tu tonu
ā, ki te hunga
kāore i taea e rātou te kite i te porowhita
Ki roto i te rua rāpeti ka heke mātou
i raro i te whenua wera i muri i te whakangaromanga o te ao
huna mai i te whakamamae o tō tātou hītori
Ka okioki ngā atarangi o ō tātou wairua kua ngaro
Shane C Richards
E kiia ana he mea ngaro nō te wā rotarota o muri-hou, kei te haere tonu tana tuhituhi, e rima tekau tau pea i muri i tana tīmatanga ki te pene, ā, kāore e whakaatu ana i ngā tohu o te puhoi haere.
Kāore e mutu tana hiahia nui ki te waiho i tētahi taonga tuku iho mō ngā reanga o muri mai .
