(Translation of Māori lyrics)
Ko taku mahi he tatari - It's my job to wait
Inā te wā roroa - It's a long time
Taku aroha mōu - My love for you
Mō āke tonu - Forever
Arā tāua, tāua ka koa - In other words, we will be happy
(Chorus taken from a traditional Māori folk song)
ē auē, ē auē - Alas, alas
Ka mate ahau - I will die
E hine, hoki mai rā - Oh my darling, return to me
