Legendary journalist, musician and artist Moana Maniapoto joins Emile Donovan to share a whakataukī close to her heart.
"Tuuwharetoa e!
Kia aata whakatere i te waka
Kei pariparia e te tai moonehunehu, Tuuwharetoa!
Whakamaarotia atu anoo, ka whakahoki mai ana
Ki te kapua whakapipi, ka mate kainga tahi, ka ora kainga rua."
"Row the waka carefully and gently
Lest it be overwhelmed by the driving spray
Stretch out, but guard your return to the sheltering cloud
A man who has only one plan may not succeed."
