D-Bm-G-A
Hauāwhiowhio,
Tāniwhaniwha te moana.
Tohua a mai rā, i te parekura.
Pupū ake ana, te wairua matapoporehia.
Te tangi a papa te haumatakataka.
Hūkerikeri ana, kawea mai te ua marangai.
Te tangi a Rangi, ki tōna ūkaipo.
Ka whakairohia i ngā arahou,
Ki runga ki te whenua.
Te tangi a Papa te haumatakataka.
E kore e hē ana,
taku manawa te aroha
ngā tau taunga, kua ngāro atu
Ka whakairohia i ngā arahou,
Ki runga ki te whenua.
Te tangi a Papa te haumatakataka.
(Original Tune: Love will Keep us alive by the Eagles and repopularised by Maoli)
Sung in memory of all those that suffered in cyclone Gabrielle, 2023.
