Moana Maniapoto - TAHI Lyrics

A song that recalls the unity of Maori ancestors as they travelled on the Great canoes from Hawaaiki to Aotearoa, and the hope that one day, Maori will reclaim that sense of unity.

Moti no taua e ko tikoiere, ko tikoiere
Tu te wininini, tu te wanawana, ko tikoiere, ko tikoiere

Chorus:
Kia kotahi ra, kia kotahi ra (4x)
Aue, aue, aue, aue

Kia tahuri mai I nga taringa manu
Taringa patu
Kia aro mai te whakarongo
Tenei te whakahuahua atu ki roto nei
Kia rere arorangi atu ki runga ki te tihi o te maunga
E tu mai ra

Aue/ oooh oooh aue (4x)
Hei tama tu tama hei tama tu tama hei tama tu tama ra

Chorus

Ka hoki nga whakaaro
Ki te wa I whakawhiti mai ai
Ko nga matua tipuna
He rerenga wairua
Inaienei kahore I te takoto pera
Me ta ratou I haere mai ai
Kahore ianei ko nga uri I te kotahi ra
Nga whakaaro

Hi!
E whakapurua mai ra ko te hau e ue
E whakapurua mai ra ko te hau e ue
Moti mota moti mota
Ka tangi mai i raro
