Chålan Uenuku
In Tina... In Tina I Manmatao
Håfa Adai Kia ora from Aotearoa
With a fresh hot flow ah donne' with a to'a
Mango, travelling on pieces of the rainbow
Uenuku
In my ulu as i stay so
Close to the pulu of the omen birds
Listen to the oceans words
As i cruise through the unai
Feet get fotgon when the tåsi gets magodai
Give thanks to the tao tao who help me ma'udai
With the kåna of the tåno' i descend from
Tend to chenchu'le ancestral connections
Ti mamaigo' si yu'os so we can't forget them
Remembering the dance as I pray to all directions
Step one is cho'gue ya nihi ta fanoghe
Protectors of the land hita i manggogue'
So we know our manggåfa and our håle'
Activate our words to be the tåle' that bind us
Gather babao from the spirits to remind us
I trust in my saina to guide me
Align with faith in the timing
As I be arriving
In this land full of mana
I pick up the take' and compost the tåki
Chanting O Manasaina Si Yu'os Ma'åse
Chilling Te whenua o Te Kawerau ā maki
Let the hånom of the saddok wash me
Clean as I sing to creations spring
I see the dinga' of Lasso' Fuha
Giya this whenua
Known as Lion's rock
But it's real names
Te Piha
In Tina...
In Tina I Manmatao
Håfa Adai Kia ora from Aotearoa
With a fresh hot flow ah donne' with a to'a
Mango, travelling on pieces of the rainbow
Uenuku
In my ulu as i stay so
Close to the pulu of the omen birds
Listen to the oceans words
As i cruise through the unai
Feet get fotgon when the tåsi gets magodai
Give thanks to the tao tao who help me ma'udai
With the kåna of the tåno' i descend from
Tend to chenchu'le ancestral connections
Ti mamaigo' si yu'os so we can't forget them
Remembering the dance as I pray to all directions
Step one is cho'gue ya nihi ta fanoghe
Protectors of the land hita i manggogue'
So we know our manggåfa and our håle'
Activate our words to be the tåle' that bind us
Gather babao from the spirits to remind us
I trust in my saina to guide me

Te Piha
