Te piki kōtuku kua riro atu rā
Kua rere atu rā koe ki ngā rangi i runga
Ki o rahi, ki o nui i te pō
Waiho mai au, mokemoke ai - i te pō, i te pō
E te rau aroha kua taka iho rā
My rare white heron that has been taken...
You have flown to the heavens above,
To your many loved ones of the night
Leaving me lost and alone in darkness
My adored feather of affection that has fallen...
Written back in 2010 for an uncle that tragically passed away , I never sang it anywhere. While in Guam this year (2016) another uncle who I loved very much passed away and I could not return to his tangihanga in Whangaparaoa... I was broken :( This song came straight back to me in an instant. On my return I ran a workshop with akonga from Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Ruamata and I taught the waiata to them. Within minutes, they had the feel, arrangement and parts sussed... and the rest is history.
If this song moves you, heals you or touches you in any way, please feel free to sing it or play it.
Dedicated to uncle John Waenga and uncle Ray Barrett.

I'm a Scotsman, my wife lived in Picton and then Wanganui when she was younger, I know she aches to see NZ again,...... one day❤
Lyrics:

Ki o rahi, ki o nui i te pō
Waiho mai au, mokemoke ai - i te pō, i te pō
E te rau aroha kua taka iho rā
Kua rere atu rā koe ki ngā rangi i runga
Ki o rahi, ki o nui i te pō
Waiho mai au, mokemoke ai - i te pō, i te pō
My rare white heron that has been taken...
You have flown to the heavens above,
To your many loved ones of the night
Leaving me lost and alone in the darkness
My adored feather of affection that has fallen...
KIA ORA 👍

The nehu is on 20 December 2023
I am a pakeha whaea exploring waiata this evening to improve my pronunciation. This is a truly touching melody with very special words. Thank you for sharing with us. Aroha nui from Westie Auckland
Arohanui e te whaea
God bless you, I am a Maori on my Reo Maori journey, all the very best.
My sister and brother sang this at my husbands tangi recently. Lost him at 47yrs. My poor husband suffered a lifetime in silence only to give up his battle. Miss him everyday

💚💜😘✨

Much love to you Paula. May your husband rest in peace.

I don’t even speak the language, didn’t know what they were saying at first, but when I purely listen to this song, only tears flowed. This is a beautiful song and arrangement. Music is magical. Thank you for sharing!
You’re welcome, as i am part maori
Loveeeeeeeeeeee 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
ALOHA from Hawai'i ❤❤❤
Kia ora from aotearoa
Wow, since ive heard this waiata, ive played it almost every night before i shut my eyes. This waiata hits that sweet spot. I lost my son back in 2010. In 2011 we had 2 feathers with the words la'u lupe ( my dove ) put on his headstone, so this waiata is so touching. Kia ora rob 😊
So would you say you've played it "i te pō"? Haha
Ka aroha neph xx
Bless brother 🙌🏾
Still jamming in 2022🔥🔥
Nice song🤙
Greetings from France👊🇨🇵
I've listened to this version heaps over the years. Suddenly tonight, stupid me, I just clicked how clean the guitaring is! This waiata just got elevated again.
I can't stop watching this. ❤️❤️
Apparently what I needed was a Saturday morning cry 🙏. Beautiful
I just had a Thursday 'halli bag"lol
Kia ora Matua,
Haki Raiwhara here my wife Aunty passed away and the whānau would like me to sing this waiata at her nehu next week, 20 December 2023, Auckland.
Bit nervous, but I'll give it a go ❤
Heard this in Cornwall, UK. This touched my soul. One Love and Blessings to all .
Listen to this at work, just moved to aus this makes me miss home so much our people have so much talent Maori Loud and Proud
I have had this song on repeat all day. This song reminds me of my Dad and 1st cousin. They passed 3months apart back in 2016 x. Love it.
Very great voices and absolutely beautiful song 🎤🎶🎵🎼👍 Music greetz from the Netherlands 💜
Wow wow Am from South Africa 🇿🇦 I can hear absolutely nothing but I love this waiata😀 👌beautiful
My heart swells with pride every time I hear these beautiful, humble, talented kids. And I dont even know any of them. Thank you guys, you are superstars!
Extremely beautiful!! I would be blessed if I left this world to this waiata, sung so beautifully by these talented individuals. You are a true poet, to invoke such an emotional connection. Keep creating, keep inspiring.
Thank you for your kind words.
They are singing with so much heart in it, I do not understand your language but it made me tear up.❤❤
Beautiful words, beautiful voices - beautiful tribute song for your uncles 🙏🏻
Watched this video 15 times and still counting, can't get enough of this rare talent... Keep it up coz you guys have something special. The boy singing the low part, you solid my bro and the girl closest to the camera, seki singing... But all of you guys together omg, music to my ears but heaven to watch💕💪💪
I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! 😘
MAHALO NUI!!!!
From a Brother from over seas and still learning Maori, I love the Song!Well Done!!!
I too should get down to learning the language properly, I would like to phase out using English for myself one day and only use it when I have to which will still be often anyway.
I also wanna learn the Maori languages of all the Pacific, to deeply understand our language the way our most ancient ancestors may have.
Auē, mahalo a nui iā ʻoukou! Ua nahenahe maoli nō!
Aloha e koʻu hoahānau! Maikaʻi nō kēia! Much love from cousins of Hawaiʻi.
Kia ora!
Kia ora
Aloha hoahānau 👊🏽💓 tēna koe e te whanaunga
Tena koe Rob... thank you for the music, the words, the healing, the emotions - just beautiful
Love your song my friend Rob arohanui whanau from Tahiti 🥰
Lani
It’s been sooooo long that I’ve been listening to this and it’s still as beautiful as when I first heard it
I love this waiata
Hi all... any chance we could have a translation? I just love seeing all your faces singing with such love. The Maori People are an inspiration to other Indigenous people when the youth learn and love their culture. Thank you so much, this was beautiful!! ❤️🤜🏾🤛🏼
we sing it for the people that have passed basically
This loosely translates to:
My rare white heron
That has been taken from me
You have flown
To the heavens above
To your many loved ones of the night
Leaving me lost and alone in darkness
My adorned feather of affection
That has fallen
It’s in the description

Beautiful song, beautiful story. And I love that you've given it so freely. It definitely struck a chord with me, and my own experiences so I think I'll dust off the old guitar and learn it tonight. Arohanui from Sydney.
Chur neat alright Anton.... Inspiration when I see a fellow NZer feeling proud, inspire, mokemoke (lonely &/or missing) [for] home, go hard and if you learn the lyrics then I say ''ko koe he rangatira - your the man'!
Arohanui no Tamaki Central (from Auckland Central lol).

Do you reckon you might be able to flick me the chords as well? Worked most of them out but I'm pretty sure some of them aren't right. And you're playing a capo, yeah?
