paroles de chanson He Kakano Ahau - Stan Walker

He kākano āhau
I ruia mai i Rangiātea
And I can never be lost
I am a seed, born of greatness
Descended from a line of chiefs,
He kākano āhau

Ki hea rā āu e hītekiteki ana
Ka mau tonu i āhau ōku tikanga
Tōku reo, tōku oho-oho,
Tōku reo, tōku māpihi maurea
Tōku whakakai marihi
My language is my strength,
An ornament of grace,
An ornament of grace

Ka tū ana āhau,
Ka ūhia au e ōku tīpuna
My pride I will show
That you may know who I am
I am a warrior, a survivor
He mōrehu āhau

Ki hea rā āu e hītekiteki ana
Ka mau tonu i āhau ōku tikanga
Tōku reo, tōku oho-oho,
Tōku reo, tōku māpihi maurea
Tōku whakakai marihi
My language is my strength,
An ornament of grace,
An ornament of grace,
An ornament of grace,
An ornament of grace
