Ahuriri Tonu e
Ka hoki nei au ki te orokohanga O Ahuriri
Heipipi ki te raki te tohu o te mana o te mauri O Whatumamoa
I Heretaunga waiho e Te Orotu waiho ki a Whatumamoa
Nona taku kiri pango
Na wai ra, Na wai ra
Ki Te Whanganui A Orotu ki Ahuriri
Ko te ipu a Taraia ko te Maara a Tawhao
Ko ona tiini ki runga ko ona tiini ki raro
Kati ana a Maungaharuru tuwhera a Tangitu,
Kati ana a Tangitu, tuwhera a Maungaharuru
Otatara ki te tonga Kohukete ki te uru, Mataruahou ki te moana
Kai tua ko Pania te tipua no te iwi Ponaturi e
Omiomio te whenua
Ko Ahuriri tonu e
Tena ra koutou katoa,
Welcome to the Mana Ahuriri Trust website which provides information on the latest news and events of the Wai 400 Treaty of Waitangi Settlement process. Mana Ahuriri Incorporated was the organisation, mandated by the 7 Hapu, Ngati Hinepare, Ngati Mahu, Ngati Matepu, Ngati Paarau (which includes Ngai Tahu Ahi), Ngai Tawhao, Marangatuhetaua (Ngati Tu), and Ngai Te Ruruku to enter into negotiations with the Crown for the comprehensive and final settlement of the historical claims of these Ahuriri Hapu. After the Deed of Settlement was signed with the Minister for Treaty of Waitangi Settlements, the Honourable Christopher Finlayson, Mana Ahuriri Incorporated was replaced by the post settlement governance entity Mana Ahuriri Trust.
Ahuriri Tonu e
Ka hoki nei au ki te orokohanga O Ahuriri
I return to the very beginnings of my beloved Ahuriri
Heipipi ki te raki te tohu o te mana o te mauri O Whatumamoa
Heipipi to the north the headquarters of the Ngati Whatumamoa people
I Heretaunga waiho e Te Orotu waiho ki a Whatumamoa
In Heretaunga abandoned by Te Orotu left to Whatumamoa
Nona taku kiri pango
From whom comes the dark skin we inherit to this day
Na wai ra, Na wai ra
Presently
Ki Te Whanganui A Orotu ki Ahuriri
To Te Whanganui A Orotu to Ahuriri
Ko te ipu a Taraia ko te Maara a Tawhao
Of Taraia and Tawhao their descendents
Ko ona tiini ki runga ko ona tiini ki raro
Spread throughout the rohe of Ngati Kahungunu
Kati ana a Maungaharuru tuwhera a Tangitu,
I recall that when Maungaharuru opens Tangitu closes
Kati ana a Tangitu, tuwhera a Maungaharuru
When Tangitu opens Maungaharuru closes
Otatara ki te tonga Kohukete ki te uru, Mataruahou ki te moana
I look to Otatara in the south and Kohukete to the west and Mataruahou touched by Hinemoana
Kai tua ko Pania te tipua no te iwi Ponaturi e
On the other side of which is Pania a princess of the sea people
Omiomio te whenua
The land rolls and rumbles
Ko Ahuriri tonu e.
Behold Ahuriri!
