This is a beautiful, comforting and uplifting story for anyone who has lost someone that they love. From far away, Hawaiki called to her. Turning her face to the fun, she was ready for her next adventure. In the distance, across the shining sea, smiling faces of her ancestors were ready for her, their hands reaching out to welcome her home. Welcome precious one! Welcome!
Mai i tawhiti, ka karanga a Hawaiki ki a ia. Ka huri tōna kanohi ki a Tamanuiterā, kua rite ia mō tōna haerenga nui. I pāmamao, i tērā taha o te moana pīataata, e tatari mai rā ngā kanohi enemene o ōna tūpuna, ko ō rātou ringaringa e pōhiri ana i a ia ki tōna kāinga. Nau mai, e te kahurangi e! Nau mai rā!
