Oh my God I am crying happy tears seeing Indigenous people of that country. I am Native American and the spirituality of Indigenous people from all over is ALIVE AND WELL!!!

As a Maori living in Melbourne and being unable to come home to visit family and friends, this is exactly what I needed to see to lift the spirit.

[Mrhypnusable]

Ah this makes me so proud to be a Kiwi! I'll never forget my home country, no matter where I roam

[bjvisser]

As a Dutchie, I've lived and worked in Piopiotahi, found my girl in Te Anau, found myself in Aotearoa. The land feels like Whānau. ❤

*cough cough*
Kia mau ki tō ūkaipō
Kia  mau hoki ki tō whānau
Kia  mau ki tō ūkaipō
I tangata ai koe
I hari mai i a koe
Kia  mau ki tō ūkaipō
Kia  mau hoki ki tō whānau
Kia mau ki tō ūkaipō

Tangata  pai a Hone
Pakari ana te tū mai
Takatū ana, tāria ana e te ao
Tē hoki mai, tē auraki mai
Ngaro  ana i a ia te mana
He ao hurihuri, he ao horihori
Tāweko ana te taura tangata
Motu ana te taura karawa, ā…

Pōhēhē ana a Hēni
I te huarahi tika ia
Mahue ngā hoa, haere atu ana
Tē huri mai anō
Ngaro ana i a ia te mana
Kimi tikanga hou, he ao horihori
Tāweko ana te taura tangata
Motu ana te taura karawa, ā…

Ka mate! Ka mate! Ka ora! Ka ora!
Ka mate! Ka mate! Ka ora! Ka ora!
Tēnei te tangata pūhuruhuru
Nāna nei i tiki mai
Whakawhiti te rā
Upane, ka upane
Upane, ka upane
Whiti te rā!

Oh my God it's so beautiful and crying happy and sad tears 10 years ago I went to New Zealand a few days after my dad passed away and the wish was for him to come with us but he passed away from colon cancer and I ended up going in order to pay respects to him and his wishes and wanting me to go so we went and it was it was hard but it was so beautiful there it was such a healing time and the people are so incredible and the Earth is amazing the food is incredible everything's fresh it was so peaceful for my soul and this song is the song that I took back with me I found it and I fell in love with it along with John Butler trio. And the song is always hit me so hard with dad passing away in 2012. Just it really hits home and this is so beautiful makes me want to learn the the moari version version of this song. It is so beautiful that the song is about don't forget your roots and then halfway through they bring the heritage inn and it is so beautiful it hurts my heart and soul so hard and it just it definitely makes me think of dad and I have loved 660 forever and ever since my trip to New Zealand and will never forget you you're incredible thank you for making
