Ko te Hakari o Waenganui-ngahuru, e mōhiotia ana ko te Hakari Marama, ko te Hakari Zhongqiu rānei, he hakari kotinga rongonui e whakanuia ana e te iwi Haina me Vietnam, neke atu i te 3000 tau ki muri i te karakia marama i te wā o te Shang Dynasty o Haina. I te tuatahi i huaina ko Zhongqiu Jie i te wā o te Zhou Dynasty. I Mareia, Singapore, me Philippines, i ētahi wā ka kiia ko te Hakari Lantern, ko te Hakari Mooncake rānei.

Ka tū te Hakari o Waenganui-ngahuru i te 15^thKo te waru o ngā rā o te marama i te maramataka Hainamana, arā, i te marama o Hepetema, i te tīmatanga rānei o Oketopa i te maramataka Gregorian. Koinei te rā e rite ana ki te equinox o te ngahuru o te maramataka rā, ina tino whānui te marama, ā, e porowhita ana. Ko te kai tuku iho o tēnei hakari ko te keke marama, he maha ngā momo rerekē.

Ko te Hakari o Waenganui-ngahuru tētahi o ngā hararei tino nui o te maramataka Hainamana, ko ētahi atu ko te Tau Hou Hainamana me te Rā o te Takurua, ā, he hararei ture i roto i ētahi whenua. Ka whakanuia e ngā kaimahi pāmu te mutunga o te wā hauhake o te ngahuru i tēnei rā. I tēnei rā, ka huihui ngā mema o te whānau me ngā hoa Hainamana ki te matakitaki i te marama kanapa o te hauhake o waenganui-ngahuru, me te kai tahi i ngā keke marama me ngā pamekoro i raro i te marama. Hei tāpiri atu ki te whakanui, kei reira ētahi atu tikanga ahurea, tikanga ā-rohe rānei, pēnei i:

E mau ana i ngā rama kanapa, e tahu ana i ngā rama i runga i ngā pourewa, e rere ana ngā rama rangi,

Te tahu whakakakara hei whakanui i ngā atua tae atu ki a Chang'e

Whakatūria te Hakari o Waenganui-ngahuru. Ehara i te mea ko te whakato rākau engari ko te whakairi i ngā rama ki runga i te pou pūangi, ka whakanoho ki tētahi wāhi teitei, pērā i ngā tuanui, ngā rākau, ngā papa rākau, me ētahi atu. He tikanga tēnei i Guangzhou, i Honghong, me ētahi atu.

Keke Marama

He kōrero tēnei mō te keke marama. I te wā o te Yuan Dynasty (1280-1368 AD), i raro i te mana o te iwi Mongolian a Haina. Kāore i pai ngā rangatira o te Sung Dynasty o mua (960-1280 AD) ki te tuku i a rātou ki raro i te mana o tāwāhi, ā, i whakatau rātou ki te kimi huarahi hei whakarite i te whakakeke me te kore e kitea. I te mōhio o ngā rangatira o te whakakeke kua tata te Hakari Marama, ka whakahau rātou kia hangaia he keke motuhake. I tunua ki roto i ia keke marama he karere me te whakatakotoranga o te whakaekenga. I te pō o te Hakari Marama, i angitu te hononga a ngā whakakeke ki te kāwanatanga, ā, i turaki i a rātou. I ēnei rā, ka kainga ngā keke marama hei whakamaumaharatanga mō tēnei pūrākau, ā, i huaina ko te Keke Marama.

Mō ngā whakatipuranga maha, kua hangaia ngā keke marama ki ngā whakakī reka o ngā nati, ngā pīni whero kuoro, te whakapiri purapura rōhi, ngā tāte Hainamana rānei, kua takaihia ki te paraoa pokepoke. I ētahi wā ka kitea he toene hua manu kua tunua ki waenganui o te kai reka. Ka whakaritea e te tangata ngā keke marama ki te pūtini paramu me ngā keke hua e tukuna ana i ngā wā hararei Ingarihi.

I ēnei rā, e rau ngā momo keke marama e hokona ana i te marama i mua i te taenga mai o te Hakari Marama.

Ka whakanui tā mātou kamupene i te Hakari o Waenganui-ngahuru mā te hanga ngātahi i te keke marama me te whakapaipai putiputi ikebana.
