Tena koe – hello to one.
Tena korua – hello to two.
Tena koutou – hello to all.
Haere mai everyone.
Welcome everyone!

Tena koe – hello to one.

Ko Tataihono Nikora ahau.
Ko Jeanny Nikora taku hoa rangatira.
Ko Hēpara Aoterangi tā māua tama.

Ko Mātaatua te waka
Ko Maungapōhatu te maunga
Ko Whakatāne te awa
Ko Tūhoe te iwi
Ko Ngāti Rongo te hapū

My name is Tataihono Nikora.
Meet my wife Jeanny Nikora,
and our son, Hēpara Aoterangi.

Mātaatua is my canoe
Maungapōhatu is my mountain
Whakatāne is my river
Tūhoe is my tribe
Ngāti Rongo is my family

Ko Hāhi Īhāhā o Tāmaki Makaurau tā mātou hāhi.
Ko Ihu Karaiti tō mātou Atua, ā, ko ia te Kaiwhakaora.

Waiata or songs are sung to embellish speeches, to convey a particular message, to impart a story or historical event or to entertain. Every culture has its own form of song and dance to express who they are and what they're about.

In Māoridom, waiata are used in all of these ways and more. Waiata is an integral part of formal speech-making and a vital way of expressing ourselves, both traditionally and contemporarily. 

Auckland Evangelical is my Church.
Jesus Christ is my God and my Saviour.

Now that you know who I am, I'd love to get to know you! The pepeha is an introduction to make connections. Let's bond over the things we have in common and the things that make us who we are.

You just experienced my pepeha. It's a traditional Māori greeting that conveys to you my whānau (family), my iwi (tribe) and my Hāhi (church) so that we can whakawhanaungatanga (relate) and connect.

Tēnā koutou katoa.
Ko . . . te whakapaparanga mai.
Ko . . . te whenua tupu.
Ko . . . te kāinga.
Ko . . . au i . . .
Ko . . . au.
Tēnā tātou katoa.

All together! Try recording yourself and send it to me at tataihono.nikora@jesusfilm.org.

Use journey description for notes about the audience, topic, traffic source, etc. Only you and other editors can see it.

Tēnā koe e hoa ma, nau mai.
