Kāhore he manu e kakapa i roto rā
Me he manu koe hoki, rere atu ki wawā
Mā wai e kiki te tātākī o te rau?
He taonga te wareware, ka maumahara kē au
Haehaea te marama, maringi toto miraka
Tīramarama atu, e kimi ake rā
Kāhore te taumaha e pēhanga nō runga rā
Oma ake tonu ai, ka pekea ngā matata
E kore e kite Ana au, e te hoa hōtoke
He pohewa tonu ai i te makaro e
Haehaea te marama, maringi toto miraka
Tīramarama atu, e kimi ake rā
Kāhore i tae i ahau te tuku mihi koropai
He kōingo, he karanga ki a rīpeka, haramai
