E hika tena koe.
Tenei kua panui i nga kupu a Paratene
Ngata raua ko Tuta Nihoniho, i roto i to ta-
tau Nupepa, me te awangawanga a te ngakau
he tika pea nga kupu a enei poai e tohutohu
nei, engari ko te ngakau kua matawiu, e kore
e hoki wawe ki nga tikanga o te ao marama
whakata ai i te manawa era, e aku whana-
unga ahakoa pewhea te nui te kaha me te
tiketike me te marakerake o a tatau tohutohu,
e kore te Maori e tahuri mai, ko te take, kua
kainga rakautia te kiri o te tangata, kua ta-
whiti-pamamao te wairua hei whakahoki mai
i te wai-ora ki te tangata, ko a tatau kupu
e tohutohu nei, e rite ana ki te tupapaku e
mea ana kia hemo, tohutohu noa atu kua
turi ke nga taringa, kaore e rongo mai ki ta-
ka whakaaro, he mea tika ma te lwi Maeri,
me kohikohi i nga tangata whakaaro nui o te
Iwi Maori, hei kimi i te huarahi e hoki mai
ai te wairua me te ngakau tatu ki te Iwi, ko
taku whakaaro kaha tena i au e tu nei i roto
i nga huihuinga o te Kotahitanga, me te ata
titiro atu ano ki nga whakaaro o nga Ranga-
tira, me te Iwi kaore nei e tahuri mai ki te
patapatai i nga whakaaro o nga tangata tino
kaha ki te whakataki i nga huarahi e ta-tata
ai he ora nao te Maori, kore rawa atu he ti-
kanga pena, heoi ano te mea i rawe i nga tini
hui kua taha ake nei, he tu au an ki te whai-
korero me etahi tikanga kotiti-ke ki waho o
te raina, na reira ka mahue nga mea tino
whai-tikanga, ka kotiti-ke te ngakau ki nga
mea tikanga kore, pau noaiho te taima mo
nga mahi ahuareka, me era atu mahi pohehe,
me te whakaaro penei o te tangata me te
Wahine, maku tonu e kimi he ora moku, ma
tena tangata ano Wahine ranei e kimi he ora
mona, kei te penei te rere onga korero a te Iwi
Maori i nga tini hui kua mutu ake nei, me
era stu e heke mai nei, e kore e mahue ta te
Maori rerenga korero, i pau noaiho ia tatau
te taima mo ena rupahu e whawhaitia ma-
ina o koutou Whenua, riro atu ana, waiho
te manukanuka me te tumatatenga ki te hu-
nga e matakitaki atu ana, ko taku ngakau ia
e pawera hoa atu ana, ko etahi e penei ana te
whakaaro, me tatari ano tatau kia Pire tono
Mana-motuhake, hei pupuri i o tatau Whe-
nua, e hoa ma waiho tena whakaaro tatari
roa o koutou, me whawhai te ngakau ko te
mea kua tu-tata hei hopu mai i te oneone
hei oranga mo a koutou potiki, akuanei ko-
utou ki penei mai ai, ko taua arero ano nana
i tono he Mana-motuhake, ae, ko taua arero
ano nana i tono he pukapuka mihi kia te
Kuini, ko taua arero ano nana i tuku he
Pitihana ki te Paremata, kia mahia he Ture
hei kati i te hoko o koutou toenga Whenua,
a ko nga Whenua, kaore e taea e te Maori te
mahi, me waiho ena hei Whenua riihi wha-"
kanohonoho tangata, ko te tikanga tena o te
Pitihana, kia mahia e te Kawanatanga he
Ture hei mahi i te Whenua e puta mai ai he
ora ki te Iwi no ratau te Whenua, me te wa-
hi iti nei e riro ma te Kawanatanga, mehemea
i penatia he Ture i nga tau maha kua taha
atu nei, e kore rawa tataa e penei te tangi 1d
te oneone ka tata nei te ngaro atu, he maha
rawa nga miriona eka kua toe, e hoa ma, ko
te tupato o etahi Rangatira whiwhi Whenua.
mehemea ka riro ma te Poari e whakahaere
o ratau Whenua i roto i nga tau e 42, ka kore
o ratau mana ki o ratau Whenna, tuarua,
kua kore he mana o te runanga o te Kotahi-
tanga, tuatoru, ko te whakaekenga o te
Mokete ki runga i nga Whenua Maori, no
reira ka waiho enei take hei Atua whakaha-
ehae kia tatau, e momona ana enei take hei
korerotanga ma tatau, e aku whanaunga e
pouri ana au i te mea kua oti te Pire te whi-
riwhiri, e noho maina te komiti i Poneke hei
whakahaere i te tikanga, hei tono atu i nga
huarahi ki te Iwi, hei whakakaha i taua Pi-
re ki te Paremata, e pai ana, engari ko te
whakaaro whakahe ki te Pire, kai te mau
tonu i etahi Hapu, tena pea nga Pitihana
kua tae ki te Whare kowai ka kite atu, e kore
pea te Maori e pai ki te whakarongo ki nga
kupu tohutohu atu, otira he mea tika kia ata
tirotiro ano tatau i nga kupu e makere iho
ana i te waha o nga tangata tino marama ki
te whakahaere tikanga, na ka whai kupu au
mo te Poari hei matakitaki ma koutou i toku
whakaaro mo taua Poari, kia rua Pakeha
kia toru Maori, engari me mau tonu ratau
hei tangata tuturu, ko aua Maori hei nga
tangata mohio, ahakoa tangata whiwhi Whe-
nua, kore Whenua ranei, engari ko te tika
anake me te mau o te Ture ki te taha Maori,
ko taku tena e kite ana, mo nga Pakeha e
rua, tena e taea e te Komihana te huarahi mo
nga moni me te tuku atu i nga kai ruri hei
whakatakoto i nga raina rori me te tapatapa-
hi i nga Poraka kia ririki, me te mahi i nga
rori me nga Piriti.
Tena ko te mahi Kooti Whenua, kaore i
taea e te Komihana, engari ano nga Tiati
mohio ki nga tikanga Maori pena me Tiati
Make e rawe ana e na tu o te tangata, mo taua
Poari tena e whakahaere pai, ki te hoatu te-
tahi rarangi ki roto ki te Ture, hei whaka-
mana i te Kotahitanga, ara i tona Runanga
hei titiro i te tika o te mahi ia wa, ia wa, i
mua mai o te haerenga o nga pukapuka ki te
Paremata i nga taima, katoa, ma te Runanga
hoki o te Kotahitanga e titiro nga tikanga,
kaore i pai te whakahaere, me te titiro ano
hoki i te huarahi, hei tono ki te Paremata
kia whakatikatikaina te Ture me ona mahi
ia wa, ia wa, a he aha te he o tena tikanga
mehemea ki te hiahia koutou ko te huarahi
tenei e mau ai te mahi a te Kotahitanga ki
o koutou whenua, engari ki toku whakaaro
tera koutou e whakaae kia whakahokia te
tokomaha o taua Runanga ki te 26 nga Me-
ma, kia 22 mo Aotearoa, kia 4 mo te Waipou-
namu, tena tonu o koutou whakaaio, e penei
he nui te moni o tatou whenua e pau hei utu
i nga Mema o te Kotahitanga, me te whaka-
aro ka pau huhua, kore era me ni e kore matou
e whakaae, e hoa ma kaore tena tikanga i te
Kohuru ia koutou, engari hei tiaki anake i te
tika, me te mahi pono, me titiro i ana koutou-
ki nga mahi a te Kawanatanga, na te tokoma-
ha o nga upoko kai te whakahaere ia ratou
mahi i mua ai i te tika me te pono, mehe-
mea ka whakaae koutou ki tenei, a te Hui e
tu mai a nauri ka kimi ai i ona tikanga, e
takoto pai ai, ka nui ano te pai ki te mea ka
noho mahara tonu koutou, he mea tena hei
whakaora i te tu onga tikanga a te Iwi Maori,
ka mutu ake taku whakamarama mo te taha
ki te Kotahitanga, ka timata ake mo te mo-
kete a te Poari i te rima mano pauna i te tau,
e mahara ana te ngakau Maori apopo o tatou

Kawanatanga, kai te tino neke rawa atu te
pai o a ratou mokete, he iti ta ratau Itareti
he tino mohio hoki a ratau tangata ki te
whakahaere i nga whenua, e kore e puta,
