Kia ora, kia ora, kia ora.
Whakatikatika ana au i ētahi o aku tuhinga o mua, kua hē katoa te takoto, honohono katoa ana, hore he wāhi mahea i waenganui i ngā whiti. Heoi, ko taua raruraru rā anō i amuamu rā au, ki te whakatika au i runga i taku Mac, ka hē te takoto. Hei aha, kia whai taima au ainei ka whakakāngia taku PC, ka whakatikangia rawatia.
Kua roa i tērā o aku tuhinga, kei te tika. Heoi, kaua e rikarika mai, hei tāku kua puta kē taku kōrero i ngā tuhi kua taha atu, ē – Kei te Atua me taku wahine te tikanga o ngā taima e wātea ai au ki te tuhituhi. Heoi, ināianei kua poka kē tērā kōrero, tā te mea, horekau kē he paipainga o taku wahine, o te Atua rānei, i aku tamariki!
Me ko te korokoro kē o te Parata aku tamariki.
Me he kaipuke horomia hoki ngā haora o te rā.
Kāti, te kōrero mō tēnei wiki (marama rānei, te take kua maramatia kē te tawhiti o tētahi tuhinga i tētahi). Ahakoa, hore anō au i tuhituhi noa mō te roanga atu o taku haerenga i Ūropi, tāria tērā. Ko te kaupapa i tēnei wā, ko te tini o aku hoa e tono ana i ā rātou tamariki ki te kōhanga reo, e whakapatipati ana ki ētahi āwhina i ā rātou kōrero Māori i te kāinga. Tētahi mea e tonoa nuitia ana, he pukapuka reo Māori i tua atu i a Māui me ana mahi, i tua atu hoki i te ao Māori.
I runga i ēnei akiaki, ka taria e au aku tamariki ki te whare pukapuka i tēra rā rā ki te rapu kaupapa. Rokohanga atu ko ngā pakiwaitara Kirihi (Kariki rānei), ko ngā ‘Māui’ pea o Kirihi. Ko Perseus tētahi. Nāku tēnei kōrero i whakamāori ki taku mātāmua, mate pai ia i te rawe. (Ko wai hoki e kore, he wahine he neke kē ōna nei huruhuru?)
Nō reira, mō koutou e hiahia pakiwaitara hou ana i roto i te reo Māori mō ā koutou tamariki (nōnohi nei) – ānei he whakamātauranga.
Nō mua noa atu tēnei kōrero, nō te whenua o Kirihi.
Tērā tētahi wahine, taniwhā nei, ko Medusa tōna ingoa. I taniwhā ai, nā te mea, he neke kē ana huruhuru. Tata kau anō koe ki a ia – hihī mai ana ana mōkai. (Me hihī ki ngā tamariki i konei.)
Heoi, ko tōna weriweri, horekau e mutu ana i konā, kāhore. Ko ana karu, inā tau tana titiro ki runga i a koe, ka huri koe hei kohatu! (Me Whetē ō kanohi i konei me te tohutohu i ngā tamariki ki te ārai i ō rātou anō karu kei hurihia rātou hei kōhatu).
Ka whakatau a Perseus, he toa nō Kirihi, me patu ia i taua taniwhā. Erangi e toru ana mate.
Tuatahi, ko te tawhiti atu o Medusa.
Tuarua, ko tana titiro whakakōhatu, me pēhea te karo?
Tuatoru, ko te patu i a ia kia mate – mate rawa.
Taku aroha, kua whakamutu takiwātia i konei, nā te mea kua tata parangia au, kei hē aku tuhi. Ka tuhia e au te roanga atu ki tētahi atu tuhinga ainei.
