[Verse 1]
Meinga rā, Meinga rā tenei
Koe ka puta, na ka ora
E tā
Kei tukua, Kei tukua iho
O konohi tūnewha
Ka ara rawa
[Pre-Chorus]
Ruai takitakina
Takiri takiri takarita
Taka ki te ringa pakerewha
Ruai tohetohe kia puta
Ruai whakatika rawatia
E tama whakatika rawatia
Kei parangia roatia
Haere ki te popokorua nã
Mātaki nā
[Chorus]
Hei te kotinga
Hei te kotinga witi nei
Kia rite hei te kotinga
Hei te kotinga witi nei
Nei
[Verse 2]
Whakarongo e tama
Tū mai, maranga
Kei riro tō mana
Kei tutuki tō waewae na
Tangohia atu rā
Te taura kia waiata
Kia iti ake
Te kōtuinga ringa ia koe e takoto nā
[Pre-Chorus]
Ruai takitakina
Takiri takiri takarita
Taka kite ringa pakerewha
Ruai tohetohe kia puta
Ruai whakatika rawatia
E tama whakatika rawatia
Kei parangia roatia
Haere ki te pōpokorua nā
Mātaki nã
[Chorus]
Hei te kotinga
Hei te kotinga witi nei
Kia rite hei te kotinga
Hei te kotinga witi nei
Nei
[Bridge]
Uhi tai uhi tai ana koa
Ngã haemanga kei Waiapu rã hi
Kei tutuki tō waewae
Ki te poro o tō mahinga
Uhi tai uhi tai
Ara te ope tihei tãruke
No te paripari o Pōneke rã
Tēnã whoatu
Karia te kauae e
Uhi tai uhi tai
Hi
[Chorus]
Hai te kotinga
Kia rite
Hai te kotinga witi
Kia rite mai koe
Hai te kotinga
Hai te kotinga
Kia rite
Whakarongo e tama
Tū mai, maranga, ooh
Kia rite, Kia rite
Hai te kotinga
Kia rite, ooh
Hai te kotinga witi nei
Hai te kotinga
Kia rite hai te kotinga
Kia rite, ooh
Hai te kotinga witi nei
Kia rite, Kia rite
Kia rite mai koe
