At the start of an online hui about growing native plants we recited this karakia:
Tuia ki te rangi, tuia ki te papa
tuia ki te moana, tuia tātou
E rongo te pō
E rongo te āo
Haumi ē hui ē tāiki ē
Bind to the sky, bind to the land
bind to the sea, bind the people
heard by those who have passed
heard by those of this world
Bind, gather, unite
