Te waka Aurere
Nā Kingi Ihaka
I te atatū o te rā tekau mā whitu o Mahuru, 1992, ka tīmata ngā tāngata o te motu o Raiatea ki te huihui i te wahapū o Taputapuatea. Ko tēnei hoki te wāhi e haere atu ana ngā kaumoana mā runga i te waka Hokulea mai Huahine. He wāhi tino tapu tēnei, hāunga anō ki ngā tāngata whenua o reira, engari ki a tātou te iwi Māori. Te take, i roto i ngā korero i tīmata mai ngā waka i mua atu i tō rātou hekenga mai ki Aotearoa i reira. "He kākano i ruia mai i Raiatea, e kore tātou te iwi Māori e ngaro." I reira ngā tāngata e tatari ana mō te taenga atu o ngā manuhiri. I ngā rā o mua tata atu ki tēnei, kua tae kē ngā kaumoana ki Huahine. I reira rātou e whakatikatika ana i te waka Hokulea me rātou anō mō te haerenga atu ki Raiatea. Kīhai i tino tawhiti. Pēnā e tika ana te hau e kore roa atu i te ono haora pea.
Eke atu i te toru mano tāngata e tatari ana i a Hokulea i Taputapuatea. Ko tēnei iwi o Tahiti he iwi ātaahua ngā wāhine. Ko ngā tāne, kīhai i nui pēnei i ngā toa Māori. He tāngata poto ngā tāne, he ōrite anō te kanohi. Engari ki ō rātou kākahu, he tino rerekē. Ngā wāhine katoa o reira ka nui te tino roa o ō rātou makawe. Ki muri i ō rātou taringa kua titia e rātou tētahi putiputi. Ko ō rātou kākahu roa he pareau. I reira anō ngā kaiārahi o ētahi atu motu, nō Hawaii, nō Rarotonga, nō Micronesia, aha atu, aha atu. Ahakoa te rerekē o ngā iwi i reira, i reira rātou katoa mō te kaupapa, otirā, ki te pōwhiri i ngā kaumoana.
E iwa, neke atu rānei ngā kaipatu i ngā pahū. He tāne katoa. Ko ētahi o ngā pahū nei he rite anō ki ngā kēne kirīmi o te kāinga, me te nui anō. Engari kua mahia e rātou mai ngā kiri o ngā rākau o reira. Ānini pai te mātenga, i te kaha o te patu o ngā tāne i ēnei pahū. Ko ētahi anō he pahū nohinohi ake. He rākau anake ēnei. Tino rerekē te tangi o ēnei pahū ki te tangi o ngā pahū nunui. Kia kaha anō te tangata ki te patu i ēnei momo pahū, nā te mea, kia kite atu rātou i te manuhiri e tata mai ana kua haere kaha te ringa ki te patu i ngā pahū nei. I a rātou e patu ana i ēnei mea, e kanikani ana ngā wāhine. Ko te tino tere te whatiwhati o ngā hope o ngā wāhine me te piu hoki o ngā tinana.
Nā e pēnei ana te noho o te iwi i te taha o te moana. He rā tino ātaahua. Kīhai he kapua i te rangi. Kīhai hoki te hau e kaha ana. Ētahi o ngā tāngata e kai ana, ko ētahi e takoto ana i roto i te moana e titiro atu ana ki waho. Nā te mea kua kitea atu te waka Hokulea. Engari ka nui anō te tawhiti ki waho. E rua atu haora i mua i te taenga mai. I te kitenga atu o Hokulea e tā rātou karere, ka auē.
Nā i konei, kua tīmata ngā rangatira o ngā tāngata whenua i ā rātou karanga. E kore ngā wāhine o ēnei motu e karanga pēnei i ngā kuia o te kāinga. Ko ngā tāne anake ngā kaikaranga. I a rātou e karanga ana, e tangi ana ngā pūtātara, e haere kaha ana ngā pahū me ngā tāngata i uta e kanikani ana.
Ko tētahi mea tino whakamīharo i kitea i tēnei rā, nā te tatanga mai o te waka nei ki uta, ka marangai kaha, i tino pakaru mai te rangi. Ka puta te ua, te uira, me te whatitiri hoki. He aha te take i pēnei ai? Tēnā pea he tohu atua. Mākū pai ngā mea katoa, engari ahakoa i mākū, nā te āhua o ērā takiwā e mahana ana te tinana.
Ka tae mai a Hokulea i waho tata atu, ka haere atu ētahi waka iti hei whakawhiti mai i ngā kaumoana me ngā rangatira rā ki te Marae o Taputapuatea. Ahakoa he maha ngā tāngata hei pōwhiri i te manuhiri, ka nui anō ngā tāngata o wāhi kē, i reira e hopu ana i tēnei taenga mai mā ō rātou ake mīhini ataata, aha atu, aha atu.
Ka tae mai ngā rangatira nei mai i ngā motu o Te Moana nui a Kiwa, ka haere kaha rawa atu te tangi a te pūtātara, me ngā pahū hoki. Ka haere atu ētahi o ngā wāhine ka whakatare tāhei putiputi ki ngā kakī o ngā tāne. He tikanga anō tēnei nō reira. Kua harirū. Ā, kua whakapā ngutu, kotahi ki te taha mauī o te pāpāringa, tētahi ki te taha matau, ahakoa wahine ki te tāne, tāne rānei ki te tāne.
Ko te mea tuatahi, ko ngā karakia tawhito o ēnei iwi. Te āhua nei hei whakanoa i ngā kaumoana me ngā rangatira o wāhi kē. Ka mutu ēnei mahi tapu kua haere ngā kaumoana me ngā rangatira anō, haere tētahi ki muri i tētahi. Kia tae ki ētahi o ngā kōwhatu teitei, kua haere mā te taha, ā, huri noa, nā, kua waiho atu ētahi putiputi ki runga i ngā kōwhatu nei.
Ko te atua tino nui o ēnei kōwhatu ki mua tata anō i te hounga atu ki te wāhi tapu. Me hanga anō tēnei atua i te kōwhatu. Ko ngā tāngata whenua i tīmata i ngā mihimihi, me ō rātou kīnaki hoki. I tēnei wā e ua kaha ana. I te tūnga o Hekenukumai ki te mihi ki ngā atua o reira, mutu tonu atu te ua, ka paki te rā. I āhua pēnei pea i te mea e hiahia ana ngā atua o reira ki te whakarongo ki ngā mihi a te kaumātua nei. He wā tino tapu tēnei. I a Hekenukumai e mihi ana, horekau he tangata i reira i korikori, i turituri, i kōrero rānei.
I te mutunga o ngā kōrero, ka noho kotahi ngā tāngata katoa i reira, i runga i tētahi marae tata ki Taputapuatea. I reira rātou akongia ai ki ngā āhuatanga ārahi waka a ngā mātua tūpuna. Nō te mutunga o ngā akoranga, ka hoki mai a Hekenukumai ki te wā kāinga.
Nā Kingi Ihaka
E toru wiki pea e haere kaha ana ngā kaumoana i Te Tokerau ki te whakatika i Te Aurere mō te haere ki Rarotonga. Heoi anō e tatari ana rātou mō te karanga a Hekenukumai. Ko te wā i whakaritea mō te haere ehara i te wā tika nā te mea e hē ana ngā hau. engari nā te hiahia a ngā kaiwhakahaere o ngā āhuatanga i Rarotonga kia tae wawe atu Te Aurere me ērā atu waka o Te Moana nui a Kiwa, ko tēnei te take i haere ai Te Aurere i taua wā.
I te taenga mai o Hekenukumai, ka huihui ngā tāngata katoa i te taha o te moana i Taipa. I te wā e haere ana ngā poroporoaki, e rongo ana te tangata i te aroha, me te tapu, o ngā kōrero a ngā kaumātua, i a rātou e mihi atu ana ki ngā kaumoana. Engari ko te mea tino aroha pea ko te karakia i mua tata atu i tō rātou haerenga. E awhiawhi ana ngā tamariki i ō rātou mātua, ērā mātua rā e haere ana i runga i te waka. Āhua pēnei pea te āhua mō te haerenga waka i te ao kōwhatu. Kātahi anō ēnei kaumoana, ēnei tāngata katoa ka haere pēnei rawa te tawhiti i runga i te moana nui. He mahi taumaha, he mahi tapu. Tēnei rātou te haere nei i te ara i haeretia e ngā mātua tūpuna i tō rātou hekenga mai ki Aotearoa. Ka nui te whakaaro o ētahi, me te āwangawanga mō te moana.
E mōhio ana tātou te āhuatanga o Tangaroa pēnā a ia ka riri. Koia pea tēnei te take e tangi ana ētahi o ngā manuhiri i haere mai ki te poroporoaki i te waka. Ahakoa e haere kaha ana ngā waka o tauiwi ia rā, ia rā i Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa, me te ao katoa hoki, kīhai ō rātou waka, te nuinga rā, i hangā i te rākau mai te ngahere. Tuarua, ko ēnei kaumoana a tauiwi, kua haere pēnei i mua atu. Ko te nuinga o ēnei kaumoana Māori, kātahi anō rātou ka haere pēnei i ō rātou ao. Ka nui te aroha i te kite i ngā kaumoana nei e whakapakari ana i a rātou mō tēnei haerenga tapu.
I ngā rā o mua i tēnei, kua haere ngā mahi whakamutunga mō te waka, Te Aurere. Otirā, ngā kai, ngā wai inu, ngā kākahu kua mauria ki runga i te waka, me ngā moenga o ngā tāngata o te waka hoki. He ono anake ngā wāhi moenga, nā te mea i a rātou i te moana nui, e ono e moe ana, e ono e ara ana hei tirotiro i te waka, kei pā tētahi mea kino ki a rātou, ka whara.
Hoianō, i te mutunga o ngā whakaritenga katoa, ka wehe atu a Te Aurere i Aotearoa, ka haere.
Kei te mōhio rawa te motu ki taua haerenga me ngā mahi katoa i pā ki a ia me tōna rōpū kaumoana. I pai noa ngā rangi me ngā tohu o Tāwhirimātea i te tīmatanga, engari nō muri ka tino hē. He āwha i pā, i puare ake te korokoro o Tangaroa ki te whakahoromi, ā, i tīwaha atu a Tāwhirimātea me ōna hau tūpuhi me ngā moana totoa hoki.
Ko te tikanga ko ō rātou kākahu me mahi mārika mō ēnei āhuatanga o te moana. Ahakoa mākū a waho, maroke tonu te tinana o te tangata, engari kīhai rawa i pērā. I noho tonu kē rātou i roto i te mākūkū me te kōpeke mō ētahi wā tino roa.
Ko tētahi o ngā ture o te motu i whakatauhia ki runga ki a Te Aurere i pēnei: mō te momo waka pēnei ka haere ki tāwāhi, me haere a ia me tētahi atu tima, waka rānei, hei ārahi, hei kaitiaki rānei. Nā te rangatira rā nā Te Hekenukumai i kimi atu taua tima hei haere tahi me Te Aurere.
Ko te mōhio i tōia a Te Aurere i Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa mō ētahi rā, ētahi pō hoki. He tika rā. Ko ngā kaumoana i haere mā runga i te waka, nā rātou i pērā mārika. I whakatauhia mai rā anō i runga i te tino hiahia o ngā kaiwhakahaere o ngā moutere kia tae wawe atu te waka ki te hui, me te mōhio mō te hē o te marama hei wehetanga atu i Aotearoa, me noho tūpato a Te Hekenukumai me tana ope. Nā reira mā te tino kino o ngā mahi a Tangaroa me Tāwhirimātea ka whakaaetia me tō te waka i aua wā. Ki a tauiwi me ētahi atu ehara tēnei i te mahi tika, engari ki au, i runga i ngā kōrero a ngā kauhoe, ka tika tonu. Hoianō, ka pā mai te mamae ki te whakarongo ki ngā whakahēnga a te kūware. A rātou mā he maha, he huhua. Engari kīhai rā te mahi nei i kuhuna.
I mua atu i tō rātou wehenga, nā te rangatira nā Hekenukumai i kī, "Pēnā e tika ana te wā, ko te kaiārahi i a tātou ko ngā whetū mārama o te rangi." Me te mea tonu, ko te tino pānga ki te rangatira rā, ko te kaupapa kia tae ora rātou katoa ki taua hui.
