Whitiora feat. Majic Paora, Ngatapa Black, Sidney Diamond & Ruia Aperahama

E hoki ki tō maunga kia pūrea
E ngā hau o Tāwhirimātea
Ko Ranginui e tū nei
E takoto koe Papa
Ōu tamariki
Kia tau te aroha

Waiatatia te reo
Me ōna tikanga
Waiatatia te mana Tāne
Mana Wahine
Waiatatia ngā mokopuna
O te Ao hou
Hui kotahi
Hui katoa
Hui tonu rā

E whiti e te rā
Ngā whetū pīata
Whitiora e kanapa
E tīrama ana
Inā taumarutia te ao e te āwha
Whitiora e kanapa
E tīrama ana

Hangaia tōku waka
Hangaia mai anō
Hangaia mā te rātā
He taonga tuku nā Tāne
Ko au te awa, ko te awa ko ahau
Whenua, ora
Kia kotahi rā

Ei, Tākina atu ko te kawa nui
Ko te kawa roa
Ko te kawa tihei, tihei ngahuru mā ono
Hei whakawairea i tēnei whakaminenga
Oi e kia whakapūāki rangi kia wewerangi
Ki te rito o Rehua
Hūkere, hūkere ki a ihi
Ko te rite, ko te rite
Kia rite te rerenga o te hoe
Ko te hoe nā wai
Ko te waka nā wai
Tāpatupatua ka tapu te moana nui e

United we all stand
Divided we all plummet
When problems arise
Together we'll overcome it
Understand that it's easier
To rise above whatever
When the support is there for you
And yo we here for you
Hope for the best
But for the worst prepare for it
Use that thing inside your head
And keep it clear for it
Necessary to, in this day and age
If you wanna shine tomorrow
Gotta put in work today, let's go
Inā taumarutia te ao e te āwha
Whitiora e kanapa, e tirama ana

Whitiora featuring Majic Paora, Ngatapa Black, Sidney Diamond & Ruia Aperahama

I will return to your mountain to blow
With the winds of Tawhirimatea
As Ranginui stands here
You lie down, Papa
Your children
Let love dwell

Sing in the language
With its customs
Sing of the mana of Tāne
Women's mana
Sing of the grandchildren
Of the New World
Come together
Come together
Come together always

The sun shines
The bright stars
Whitiora will glow
It's dawning
When the world is covered by mist
Whitiora will glow
It's dawning

Build my canoe
Build it again
Build it from rātā
A treasure left by Tāne
I am the river, and the river is me
Earth, life
Until one day

Ey, Bring forth the great custom
The long custom
The custom of peace, peace of one hundred and six
To bless this ceremony
Oh, so that clear skies will rise above, over the mountain
To the core of Rehua
Hūkere, hūkere upwards
The rite, the rite
May the paddling be in unison
Whose paddle is it
Whose canoe is it
Tāpatupatua and the great ocean will be sacred

United we all stand
Divided we all plummet
When problems arise
Together we'll overcome it
Understand that it's easier
To rise above whatever
When the support is there for you
And yo we here for you
Hope for the best
But for the worst prepare for it
Use that thing inside your head
And keep it clear for it
Necessary to, in this day and age
If you wanna shine tomorrow
Gotta put in work today, let's go
When the world is covered by mist
Whitiora will glow, and it's dawning
