He Waiata Wawata mō Te Pukeroa o Ngāti Pāoa
HE WAIATA TAWHITO, HE WAIATA WAWATA MO TE ATAHUATANGA O TE PAI O TE PUKEROA RANGITIRA O NGATIPAOA.
Kaore te whakama, kei te ahi toro,
Au, e tahu ana,
He wai tarata ra, me patu, kia kakara,
Kia ingo mai ai,
Ara ko te tau, te wani noa atu ra,
Wai e rongo atu;
He karere, tuku mai i kitea e au,
He pai tangata tonu,
Taku nei ano me huri ki te tua,
I taku tinana,
He rite te pehanga, ko Paratetaitonga,
Kei te hukarere,
He rakau maroro au, ka hapainga,
Te riu ki Hauraki,
Kei hori e te ngutu, kei tara e te rau,
Mo aki kore,
Te pai horahia mai a Te Pukeroa,
Ka whakakapua nui,
Na te hoa i uta, ki te makau tangata,
I taku tinana,
Ka hara mai tenei, hei matakitaki,
Hei whakautanga rau, i.
