Ko Nga Taonga O Mua hei Pupuri ma Tatou na GRAHAM ANDERSON Tena ra koutou e nga Waka, e nga Reo, ara koutou katoa e noho mai na i o koutou kainga maha o te motu, Tena ra koutou. Tenei au te atu nei i o koutou aroaro he tamaiti hoki kaore and kia tae ki te wa hei tu ki runga i te marae. Ko te take e tu nei au he tono na te Tangata whakahaere o nga korero penei kia puta i a matou he whakaaro mo nga taonga o mua e tika ana kia puritia e tatou e te Maori. I te wa i tae mai ai te pakeha i te tuatahi, huri katoa te ahua noho a te Maori, whakarerea ana e ia tona whakapono, tona mana me tona tapu. Uru katoa nga iwi ki te whakapono Karaitiana, a e rite ana hoki tenei whakapono pera me te tapu o mua. No muri mai ka tupu te whawhai a te pakeha ki te Maori…i tenei wa ka kore haere te whakapono ki te pakeha, a ki tona Atua hoki. Muri iho ka pangia te Maori e nga mate huahua o te pakeha, a ka iki te tangata ki te po. A e whakaaro ana te Iwi kei te heke te Maori i raro i nga “waewae o te Moa” ki te kore. I aua wa e whakaaro ana nga tangata me pehea. E ki ana etahi o nga kaumatua kia “moea te po, ma te reo hihi e ora ai tatou” ara me whakarere nga tikanga o mua me whai atu i te ara o te pakeha. Inaianei kua rereke ano te ahua, kua ora ano te Maori, a kei te tokomaha haere. Kua tae mai hoki te wa hei whiriwhiri ma tatou mehemea me whakarere e tatou nga tikanga katoa o mua, me aha ranei. A ki te mea he tikanga papai hoki hei pupuri ma tatou, he aha ra era. I tupu matou, nga tamariki o tenei whakatupuranga, i roto i nga tikanga a te pakeha. Kua whiwhi matou ki tona reo hei reo mo matou a i akona hoki matou ki te kimi oranga mo matou i runga i ona huarahi. E pai ana ra ko tena, engari e patai ana au me wehe atu tatou i nga tangata o nehe,
