lyrics

Ia ra, Ia ra
Maunga stands as it has stood
Awa flows toward the sea
Ia ra
Ia ra

Ia ra Ia ra
Kauri reaches toward the sky
Tui sings to greet the day (ata marie)
Ia ra Ia ra

I have small hands (E tu)
But I have a strong heart (E tu ake)
And behind me stand
Generations gone before
Give with these two hands (Manaaki)
And with this strong heart
Ia ra Ia ra (Tamariki ma!)

Ia ra Ia ra
Ia ra Ia ra
Turangawaewae on this land (waiata e koa)

He kakano, nga rakau nui

(Arohamai, not able to load macrons currently)
