Te Piriti - The Bridge

Tāku aroha i auē, i auē
Ki ngā pō o te piriti
Pakipakia mai rā e

E no te kaha rā e
Pukepuke ai auē
Nāro e matai aku kaha mo
Iri te kete e nga horu
Pati mai (Pati mai)
Pati mai (Pati mai)
I wa hō e
Pati mai

My love and concern for the piles of the bridge
Constantly pounded by those tides so strong, mountainous
The tears from my eyes, they are like a stone
Pounding, pounding outside, pounding

E no te kaha rā e
Pukepuke ai auē
Nāro e matai aku kaha mo
Iri te kete e nga horu
Pati mai (Pati mai)
Pati mai (Pati mai)
I wa hō e
Pati mai
