[ Featuring Hayley Westenra ]
Pokarekare ana
Nga wai o Waiapu
Whiti atu koe hine
Marino ana e
E hine e
Hoki maira
Kamate au
I te aroha e
Tuhituhi taku rita
Taku atu taku ringi
Kia kiti to iwi
Raru raru ana e
E hine e
Hoki maira
Kamate au
I te aroha e
(translation)
Stormy are the waters
Of restless Waiapu
If you cross them, girl
They will be calmed
Oh girl
Come back to me
I could die
Of love for you
I write you my letter
I send you my ring
So your people can see
How troubled I am
Oh girl
Come back to me
I could die
Of love for you
