E Tou Matou Matua   Na Kate Collins
E tou matou Matua   -   Your ancestors.
Arahina matou i tenei ra  -  Lead us today
Manaakitia te whanau nei  -  Blessed is born
Ake ake tonu e  -  Ever and ever

I know how to translate the words in Maori to English because I use the internet and I search translate and in the box you can change the language you want translate.
There are 6 words you can make matua means :
company , regiment , main , paternal , principle , mainly.


There are 2 words you can make whanau means :

He Taonga   Nga Matua Todd
He taonga tuku iho -  A heritage
Toku Reo Maori - My language


No nga rangi, no runga - Of the day on
No Ihoa - Especially when


I heke mai, i nga tipuna - Down from the ancestors
Toku reo rangatira - My language


He taonga tuku iho - a heritage
Kia mau te pupuri - be pupri
I used a maori dictionary for He taonga because when I looked on the internet it didn’t work so I found a maori dictionary next to my bedroom.
There are 6 words you can make taonga means:
acquisition , belongings , instrument , possession , treasure , utensil.
There are 5 words you can make pupuri means:
contain , detain , grip , retain.

                                Taonga                         Tuiga and Conch It has lots of feathers, pearls, shells, mirror and some sharks teeth. My Grandpa gave to me when I was a little girl. I care for what the Tuiga and the Conch that my Grandpa gave to me because it belongs to me and my family. It was long time ago he use to gave to me when I was 7 years old. When I was turning 9 I lost it it I really missed the Tuiga but not the conch because it not lost or breaking. I had lots of trouble with it but I still care for it. When I was 11 I still remember it when my Grandpa died because he fall from the ladder when he try to get some delicious mango so we took him to the hospital we were to late but I still remember him and I still care for him for what he has done for me and my whole family.
