He kakano ahau
i ruia mai
i rangi ätea...
And i can never be lost
i am the seed
Born of Greatness
Descended from a line of chiefs
he kakano ahau

CHORUS
I hea ra au e hïtekiteki ana kamau
tonu i ahau öku tikanga
Töku reo, töku oho oho,
töku reo, töku mäpihi maurea
Toku whakakai marihi
my language is my strength
an ornamental grace

Ka tu ana ahau
ka uhi ahau
e öku tipuna
My pride i will show
that you they know
who i am
I am a warrior a survivor
He morehu ahau

CHORUS
I hea ra au e hïtekiteki ana kamau
tonu i ahau oku tikanga
Töku reo, toku oho oho,
Töku reo, toku mäpihi maurea
Toku whakakai marihi
My language is my strength
an ornamental grace
(fade to end) an ornamental grace
