Hine E Hine" is a Māori lullaby written by Princess Te Rangi Pai (Fanny Rose Howie née Porter) (1868–1916) in 1907.[1]
An instrumental version of "Hine E Hine" was used from 1979 to 1994 as the New Zealand TV Channel 2's "closing-down song", which accompanied a cartoon featuring the Goodnight Kiwi.[1]
It was the opening song on Kiri Te Kanawa's 1999 album Maori Songs. Hayley Westenra sang the song on her 2003 album Pure. The song features on the José Carreras album The José Carreras Collection.[2] The Phoenix Foundation performed the song in the 2010 film Boy.
