Tumeke whanau this song always make me homesick for Te Mahia, Nukutaurua, Tawapata, Onenui Station, Portland Island - Waikawa. Rongomaiwahine / Te Mahia are simply the best. Ataahua.
In 1984 during my naval career, we took this beautiful waiata through Asia, America and Mexico for 6 months. It brings tears to my eyes and a warmth to my heart to hear it again, Ataahua Whanau, Thank You.
From memory that was when the NZ Consulate opened in Mexico City and the NZ Apple& Pear Board requested that our Kapa Haka group travel from Acapulco to perform to help promote NZ and support our Ambassador. I was blown away when we performed on that TV program televised live to millions, at the requests coming in from viewers asking us to sing a waiata that they knew. Fond memories
Ngati Kahungunu go to song! Love this about our culture and how people from same Tribe or not connect through waiata / haka and at times never met before. RAWE!
I love this song. I was in the kapa haka group at CCNZ back in the 80's. Sis Lil Kershaw and Bro Hani Smiler were the tutors. I'm not Maori. I still know more Maori songs than my own cultural songs..

Ko Rongomaiwahine
