This Waiata by Hirini Melbourne has been given to me as the Kaitiaki of Loom Weaving in Duendin. I have been singing it often and now I am slowly learning the lyrics word by word. The text talks to me about kindness and about sustainability. Looking after our resources and after each other. . . I am from Germany and have lived here 16 years. I am thankful for having the chance to share this Waiata. I enjoy hearing more Te Reo on National Radio. Languages are difficult for me, One day I hope to speak more. Kia Kaha! Christine
