Aroha: Te Reo Maori Edition

Dr Hinemoa Elder’s bestselling Aroha, translated into te reo Māori. Published in collaboration with Kotahi Rau Pukapuka.

Kia ora. Nau mai ki Aroha.

He mātāpono tēnei mea, te aroha, nō te ao Māori, nō mai anō. He taonga te aroha nō te whatumanawa, e rongo ai te tangata i te hononga ki te ao wairua, ki te ao kikokiko, ki te taiao whānui hoki. Whāia ngā ara e nui ake ai te nā o te manawa me te ngākau atawhai o tētahi ki tētahi, o te tangata ki a ia anō, o te tangata ki tōna ao, mā te nui ake o te aroha i ō tātou nā ao.

Mā roto i ngā whakataukī e 52, e tārai ana te toki mātai hinengaro, a Tākuta Hinemoa Elder, i te mana o te aroha ki ngā whārangi o te puka nei, waihoki, e whakatakotohia ana e ia āna kupu arataki hei āwhina i a tātou i ia rā, i ia rā.
