I a au e kimi ana i tetehi waiata māmā hei kawe mā āku tamariki, ka hoki mahara tēnei waiata nā Pak Kasur (Soerjono). Āna, kotahi anō he waiata rongonui nāna i tito. He waingōhia te rangi, he waingōhia hoki te kupu. Ka kawea ana tēnei waiata e ahau nei, ka puta atu he waiata ā-ringa kia mārama te tikanga o ia kupu ki ngā tamariki. Ki tēnei waiata, he kēmu kupu i te rārangi tuatahi me te rārangi tuarua. Engari kāore e māmā noa iho te whakamāori. Ka kitea hoki te rerekētanga o te kupu ‘tidak’ me te kupu ‘bukan’, pērā i ngā tikanga rerekē o te kupu o ‘kāore/kore’ me te kupu ‘ehara’. Neinā, waiata mai.

He Porowhita Tōku Pōtae
Nā Shirley Hodge i whakamāori
He porowhita tōku pōtae
Ko pōrowhita te āhua o tōku pōtae
Ki te kore i porowhita te āhua
Ehara i tōku pōtae
Pahū pahū pahū orārā (3x)
He porowhita tōku pōtae
