Ngākau Katoa

1. I whakataurangi ahau
Ahakoa au ka hinga
Ka ū ki te mutunga
Tukuna ai tōku katoa
Kia herea rawatia ahau
Ki tōku Kaiwhakaora
Ahakoa aku memeha
Ko tōna aroha mōku ka mau tonu
Ka whakapono au

[Chorus]
Ngākau katoa Ka whaia te
Ariki Ngākau katoa ōku ihomatua
Whiu atu ngā mamae katoa
Ka tau mai kē te manako
Nō reira au ka aroha
Ngākau katoa ū
Ngākau katoa e

2. Ka aro atu tōku hā
Ki tōna mauri puritia
Whakanuia tōna ingoa
Ka rongo ngā wairua ruha te rekao tōna
aroha aroha mutunga kore
Nāna ahau i ārahi ōna tapuwae ka whai atu
He poutoko he toa takitini

[Chorus]
Ngākau katoa Ka whaia te
Ariki Ngākau katoa ōku ihomatua
Whiu atu ngā mamae katoa
Ka tau mai kē te manako
Nō reira au ka aroha
Ngākau katoa ū
Ngākau katoa e

[Chorus]
Ngākau katoa Ka whaia te
Ariki Ngākau katoa ōku ihomatua
Whiu atu ngā mamae katoa
Ka tau mai kē te manako
Nō reira au ka aroha
Ngākau katoa ū
Ngākau katoa e
