"This is the Place"
A song about my home, who I am, where I'm from, and the legacy I hope to leave.
The bones of my fathers under the ground, guide my feet.

"The song of my mothers, whispers through the trees
Up on that hill is where my mother lies,
I can see her still, when I look into my daughters eyes.

Chorus.
Tenei te ao (This is the place)
Tenei te ao (This is the place)
Te ao o taku hau kainga ( This is the place where I belong)
Te whenua o oku tipuna ( Where my mothers and my fathers)
Te whenua taurikura ( the place they made their home)
Taku manawa (In my bones)
Te ao o te hau kainga (This is the place where I belong)

This is my river, as children we would dive.
This our tree, me and my brother used to climb.
I live on this land, my ancestors passed to me,
The love of my people, is, everywhere I see.

Chorus.
So will my children take over after me,
So will their children, and their children,
and their children.

Chorus.
