Lyrics:

I tipu mai au i te whārua e
Ahakoa te aha amu kore e
Kia whakarongo mai ki ō ui korekore ana Ka whakaaro ake he aha te aha
E kore noa ētahi e rerekē

Kia mau ki ō pae tawhiti Ahakoa te kōkēi
He mana nui tō te āki Hei aha te whakaaro-iti

Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua

Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua

He korokoro Tūī roto pakoro e Kīia mai au e kore e rere
I mōhio au he nui noa atu rā Tōku oranga, inā te hirahira He oranga ngākau kei tua rā (kei tua rā)

Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua

Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua

Kia mau ki ō pae tawhiti Ahakoa te kōkēi
He mana nui tō te āki Hei aha te whakaaro-iti

Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua

Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua

Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua

One of my favourites songs at the moment!
I've been physically abused as a child, became addicted and homeless.
Worked my ass off and am now well on the way to graduate in neuroscience.
After my graduation I plan on moving to New Zealand and live closer to nature (no space for that in The Netherlands).
Because of that I am learning Te Reo on the side and understand most of the lyrics in this song.
This song keeps me going whenever everything feels as to much of a burden, it keeps my eyes on the prize and gives me the strength to keep moving forward. ❤

[dxllsy]

As being maori, I can understand it all, I'm very proud to be maori, especially because its a beautiful language and, our island is beautiful. He Maori ahau, e mārama ana ahau ki te katoa, e tino whakakake ana ahau ki te Maori, i te mea he reo ātaahua hoki, he ātaahua hoki to mātau motu.

[Serockosa]

Kia ora! I'm from Indonesia, I just started learning Te Reo Maori, I love this song.

[veronicachilds]

Your native tongue is beautiful!! It flows like poetry and the little girl at the end is absolutely precious.😙 (USA)

[dorkybangs]

I am forever proud of us for taking back our heritage, proudly showing our culture and speaking in our Mother Tongue - after years of believing that our languages are second-class because of former colonisation.

There’s a saying in Malay: Tak akan Melayu hilang di dunia.

And you know what? Saya harap tak akan Māori hilang di dunia juga. Mari kita jaga budaya and bahasa kami dengan sebaiknya!

[ramila]

2:45 WOW such a sweet beautiful moment for Stans niece. Everything about your whanau just melts my heart.

[frann]

Singing in our mother tongue is always so beautiful
An Absolutely Amazing rendition 😍
Love from the Fiji Islands ✌❤

[phonix__riing]

The voice of an Angel ❤️ I could listen to Stan sing all day everyday 🙌🏾

[ronah]

Such a beautiful language. It reminds me of our native language Alefuru from the Island Ceram, for certain words are the same. For example the numbers: rua and rima also means two and five in Alefuru language. And there are more examples. I love listening to your songs. It lifts me up, praising God in your beautiful language. Feels like home to me. God bless. Greetings from a Moluccan to a Maori.

[JoshRaboiliku]

Thank you for singing in your mother tongue LOVE from
