TAI AROHA came to Anaru Kupenga from inspiration on one of his many climbs up his beloved maaunga HIKURANGI.
My young brother Jay Kupenga was with me on this particular climb. At about 1600 meters he spotted a spring of water, an artesian well bubbling up from deep beneath the ground. We were at least 5,000 feet above sea level, so at such a great height he was both amazed and curious, and this caused him to question and remark about this incredible sighting, as he was so overwhelmed. |

Ko te aroha anoo he wai
E pupuu ake ana He awa e maapuna mai ana I roto i te whatumanawa Ko toona maataapuna he hoohonu Aa inaa ia ka rere anoo Ko toona maataapuna he hoohonu Aa inaa ia ka rere anoo He Tai Timu He Tai Pari He Tai Ope He Tai Roa He Tai Nui He Tai Nui He Tai Nui |
My love is like water
Continually bubbling up A spring that will keep flowing From within your soul Its source is deep within It has a soothing effect Its source is deep within It has a soothing effect An ebb tide An incoming tide A forceful tide A long-lasting tide A full tide A full tide A full tide |
