Adding the metaphor for the tangata you are acknowledging.
Hugely important i roto i te reo Māori to acknowledge the person who performs karakia on behalf of everybody.
Tēna koe e te amorangi (kaikarakia)
Nāu nei (it was you) te rā i whaka-tūwhera
Mōu hoki (you also) i tuitui i a tātou ki te wahi ngaro
Kei te manu ariki - kia tau te rongomaiwhiti (uniqueness) ki runga ki a tātou katoa
(E te Manu Ariki, e mihi ana ki a koe, i tō karakia, whakatūwhera tēnei hui ) my practise rerenga
Whakaniko - strengthen with metaphor
