paroles de chanson Aotearoa (Maori Language Week 2014) - Stan Walker , Ria Hall

Nō tawhiti, nō tata
Nō te whenua o te Atua tātou
Ahakoa nō hea mai koe
Ka whawhai tonu mātou mōu

Ko au tō maunga, tū tonu
Ko te moana pari mai koe
Ko koe te awa i taku remu, ko tāua anō tāua
Nō te one i Kurawaka, hei tiaki i te whenua nei

Aotearoa, he iwi kaha tātou
He mana tuku iho mai anō
Whenua haumako
Wairua ora
Whāia tō ara
Ki te mutunga

Nō tawhiti, nō tata
Nō te whenua o te Atua tātou
Ahakoa nō hea mai koe
Ka whawhai tonu mātou mōu

He kōrero tō te whenua, heke mai ki a tātou
He toa au mōna e oke nei e
E kore au e hinga
He uri nō te roimata
Te toto o ngā tūpuna
E kore au e wehi ē

Kia kaha tātou ki tāu i pai ai
Whakatinana, kaua e ngutu noa
Whenua haumako, wairua ora
Whāia tō ara ki te mutunga

Nō tawhiti, nō tata
Nō te whenua o te Atua tātou
Ahakoa nō hea mai koe
Ka whawhai tonu mātou mōu

Nō tawhiti, nō tata
Nō te whenua o te Atua tātou
Ahakoa nō hea mai koe
Ka whawhai tonu mātou mōu

E Ihowa atua
O ngā iwi mātou rā
Áta whakarongona
Me aroha noa
Kia hua ko te pai
Kia tau tō atawhai
Manaakitia mai
Aotearoa!

Nō tawhiti, nō tata
Nō te whenua o te Atua tātou
Ahakoa nō hea mai koe
Ka whawhai tonu mātou mōu

Nō tawhiti, nō tata
Nō te whenua o te Atua tātou
Ahakoa nō hea mai koe
Ka whawhai tonu mātou mōu

Nō tawhiti, nō tata
Nō te whenua o te Atua tātou
Ahakoa nō hea mai koe
Ka whawhai tonu mātou mōu
