    What a voice, send shivers down my spine, this is a beautiful, Maori song that is a part of all New Zealanders history. A song, a voice that deserves to be shared with the world. Hayley may not be of Maori decent but she is a Kiwi woman with a voice that could compete with the best in the world. As a part Maori, I am proud that she thinks enough of this song to perform it and perform it with such class. love it

      Thank you Hayley for a culture that few westerners ( including me) I did see a movie about their lives, it’s a powerful and poignant movie. Sorry I don’t remember the name.
      Sorry, if someone does.. please let me know.

    With Commonwealth Day coming up on March 13th, I played this again, because I learnt this song in the Girl Guides (I'm from UK) more than 50 years ago, for the same celebration then, and I have never forgotten the words.
    Such a stunning rendition by Hayley.❤

    I am from Malaysia. As a child, someone taught me this song. I never knew it was sung in Te Reo Maori, until I was an adult.
    It was one of the most beautiful songs I learnt as a child. I’m an adult now, and I get to call New Zealand home soon. Blessed isn’t even the word.
    This song and beautiful NZ in general always makes me tear up. So so darn beautiful, there are just no other words to describe it ♥️

    @Liz Stubbs Tuffin - part Maori (and for those who think only a full Maori should sing this song) .... my dad, a blonde, blue eyed, short Anglo Saxon would sing this song, saying it was one of the most beautiful songs he knew. He heard it first during WW2 in the Far East sung by Kiwis in fellow RAF crews who taught him the words. So, indeed be rightly proud, but also proudly share ......

    • @craigmccullough7333

      Insperato62 As it is generally accepted that the last full blooded Maori died in the 1960's in the Chatham Islands it would be difficult to meet that restriction on who is allowed to sing this song.

      They are agitated,

      But when you cross over girl,
      they will be calm.
      Oh, girl,
      return to me,
      I could die
      of love for you.
      I have written my letter,
      I have sent my ring,
      so that your people can see
      that I am troubled.
      My poor pen is shattered,
      I have no more paper,
      But my love
      is still steadfast.
      My love will never
      be dried by the sun,
      it will be forever moistened
      by my tears.
