I runga o ngā puke
Ka pā mai toa reo;
Hau maiangi hei kawe mai.
He reo aroha pātai ana mai.
"He aha tau e, pirangi nei?"

Chorus
Kia awhi kau atu
Ki tō tinana i ngaro,
E ngaro nei i au
i ēnei ra
Ko tōu aroha,
Ko tōku aroha,
Ka mutu pea!
Aue! Te tau!

Waiho mai e tama
O kupu oati,
I runga o nga puke
I tangi ai taua.
E haere ana koe
Ki runga o te pakanga:
Ko to reo aroha,
Karanga mai

Chorus
