It's not a perfect lyric in English, so here's a Māori version. ROSE Te taipū o te wā e rangi

Tūāporo mauri ai


Te hotahota o te wā

Hine, hine

Taringa!


Tātou tātou nonoke

Nonoke pōteretere


Te taipū o te wā kēhua

Utu take kinonga


Te whenua o te wā

Hine, hine Wiwini!


Tāku te whakarawe

nekeke te āhuarangi


Te taipū o te wā e mauri

Tūāporo rangi ai - Yes, I wrote it myself, using the methods from my class. If it sucks, that's why.
