After Lisa Reihana's Hinepukohurangi - 2001, from Digital Marae
motionless
in the corridor
between
the heavens and earth
Hinepukohurangi
no longer
will limbs collide
in the dark
of night
lament no more
Hinepukohurangi
your weeping song
has been sung
your beauty bared
not meant
for mortal eyes
has been wrapped around
in cloud
go to Hinewai
she looks out for you
ascend to the heavens
Hinepukohurangi
after the mist
and bow of rain
the sky will be cleared
in time
to come
