(Summer 1953) Previous Section | Table of Contents | Next Section – 52 – View Image HARATA TANGIKUKU'S LAMENT In the Harata Tangikuku lament of Harata Tangikuku, published on page 44 of the Spring Issue, a line was unfortunately omitted. The whole poem is therefore reprinted here: 1. Te Timu ra koe, e te tai nei , Rere omaki ana ki waho ra; Hei runga nei au tiro iho ai , Nga roro whare ki Mihi-marino Naku iana koe i kakekake , Nga rangi ra ka huri nei. 2. E tangi ra koe, e te kihikihi , Tenei koe ka rite mai hi a au; Me huroto au hei ro repo , Me kaka e whakaraoa ana. 3. Tera koia me to Tawera , Whakakau ana mai ki uta ra; Hohoro mai koia hei hoa moe ake , Moku ra e tiu nei; Me porangi au e keha ana , Me haurangi kai waipiro , Me tahuna rere i te amo hau , Me perehia rere ki tawhiti. 4. Tiro iho nei au ki ahau , Rinoi ra e te uaua , I te koha kore o te kai ki ahau , Heke ra waho ana i te kiri ora; Waiho au kia poaha ana; He rimu puka kei te akau.
