This week Ngāti Tama is leading the Te Tauihu Online Karakia and invite all whānau who would like to contribute to come along.

The Te Tauihu Zoom is a chance all whānau who whakapapa to Te Tauihu to come together online to reflect and karakia. This is also a great opportunity for whānau to take advantage of an opportunity to contribute to the evening by sharing a karakia you know or are learning. Karakia can be from any denomination, language or past-time.

If you attended the Ngāti Tama Wānanga in April last year, you would have received a flip book of karakia, these can also be found on our website.

Hīmene – Koutou Katoa Rā

Koutou katoa rā, mea iti nei,
Haere mai koutou kei whakaroa.
Tēnei a Ihu, nana te kī,
Haere mai rā ki au.

Chorus
Nei te hari, tino hari nui, ā te wā e tūtataki ai,
Hui atu tātou, rōpū katoa, runga te rangi nei.

Tukua mai rātou, nei tāna kī,
Āku i pai ai, kei puritia;
Mine mai koutou, anga mai nei
Haere mai rā ki au.

Nei rā whakaaro, tūturutia,
Tāna e kī nei, me whakaāe.
Nāna te tono, nāna te kī,
Haere mai rā ki au.
