I’m Aboriginal, and even tho our culture is a lot more displaced, I still feel strong connection to our languages and land etc… and Māori music and culture is so beautiful, even tho we not the same colour and there’s a lot of racial division between us (especially the dark skin blackfullas) I respect Maori culture so much and believe it’s such a beautiful culture. Stereotypes go for both us aboriginals and Māoris but we both have large cultural connections and traditions and beautiful ones at that. Nga mihi nui to my Māori brothers and sisters out there and Ngubadi from the Aboriginal Darug mob from Sydney 💪🏾❤️
I have so much love and respect for Māori culture ❤️ I’m just Australian no proper culture except for having one cousin who is Māori but I adore the Māori culture so much and I love this song 🥰 I can only understand some of the lyrics as I struggled finding a full translation of the song but I can feel the beauty and emotions in this song!
Time fly by us like the passing wind that blows by without a sound and scent. Next thing you know is gone. Remember to tell your loved ones that you love and care for them. That they mean the world too you. That their presence dont go unnotice so as their generosity. Share those moments dont matter how big or small it is. Each moment from the hours, minutes, and seconds will serve as memories to reminisce when they are no longer with you. From long talks too a simple I love you is what we all want too hear. Much Blessing to all pacific Islanders out there with your families and those that left their family in search of work to support and take care of them. As well as those that do not have families, we love and care for you as well. Just remember you have a family in all of us.
Taku Raumiri Uru Whetu E hurō ana te ngākau E pupū ake ana He whakaute I a koe Kei taku tuakana Nāu te ara I para Hei takahia atu māku Kua pēhea rawa ahau Ki te kore koe I taku taha?
