| Hua Pirau / Fallen Fruit (original) | Hua Pirau / Fallen Fruit (translation) |
|---|---|
| Kei ngā kaipara i te ara | Athletes are on the way |
| Te hunga o te whenua taurikura | Those of the patriarchal country |
| Tē aro i kaha rawa te moemoeā | Ignoring the dream was too strong |
| I kaha rawa | It was too strong |
| Ka hīkoi tahi tātou | We walk together |
| Tauri pua ki ō tātou pane | Put flowers on our heads |
| I te taiao ahurei, i tipu ai te rākau miro | In a unique environment, the miro tree grew |
| Mahue mai ana ko ngā hua pirau | What is left are rotten fruits |
| Auē! | Oops! |
| Mai i te papa ki te rangi rere ai | From the floor to the sky it flies |
| Honea ana nā te makerewhatu | Honea due to frostbite |
| Ihumanea mai, pongipongi mai | Welcome, welcome |
| Kei te tūmanako rā | Hopefully that day |
| Ka tanu ki wāhi kē | They are buried somewhere else |
| Takatakahia, takatakahia | Tread, tread |
| Te ara i takoto i te rau tangata | The road lay hundreds of people |
| Ki ōku taumata okiokinga | To my resting levels |
| Nau mai, nau ake | Welcome, yours |
| Takahia te ara | Take the path |
| Whano ki tua | Almost backwards |
| Takatakahia, takatakahia | Tread, tread |
| Takatakahia rā | Trample it |
| Ka hīkoi tahi tātou | We walk together |
| Tauri pua ki ō tātou pane | Put flowers on our heads |
| Ka pēhea te aroha i te mea ka ngaro? | How can love be lost? |
