Nourish singing In This Heart

Tagi Sina - What does it mean?

Sina is crying
Sina is crying
She is calling "please bring back the boat"

The people of Tokelau were taken by South American slave traders between 1850 and 1872. By 1872 the population of Tokelau was down to eighty people, mainly old men and women and little children. This song expresses the sadness and desperation felt by those left behind.

Tagi Sina
Ko kalalaga tuku mai te vaka e
Ko kalalaga tuku mai te vaka e
Ko kalalaga tuku mai te vaka e
Ko kalalaga tuku mai te vaka e
Aue Tokelau / Kua fita ki tatou
I faifaiga venei

And thanks to Wikipedia - Tokelau is a territory of New Zealand that consists of three tropical coral atolls in the South Pacific Ocean.

And Lonely Planet says... Tokelau's name is Polynesian for north wind, and it's one of the most isolated places on earth. It takes 20 hours to sail there from its nearest neighbour, Samoa, and you can forget about flying - there's no airstrip. It's largely due to this remote factor that indigenous culture has been preserved on Tokelau to a far greater degree than elsewhere in the Pacific.

Toblerone Mousse Cups

Ingredients

360g chocolate melts

200g toblerone chocolate bar

300ml cream

Method

1. Melt chocolate and spread evenly around the silicon muffin cases (I use a Chefs Toolbox 24 mini muffin tray). Refridgerate until set then remove from the mould.
2. Whip the cream.
3. Melt the toblerone in the microwave (30 second bursts on 50% power) - be careful as it may burn.
4. Gently fold the melted toblerone through the whipped cream. Fill the chocolate cups with the mousse and refridgerate until serving.
5. Serve topped with a slice of strawberry (or other fruit) and enjoy!

[You can also make these using Peppermint Crisps instead of the Toblerone]
