| Kei Tōku Ngākau Nei Koe / Always On My Mind (original) | Kei Tōku Ngākau Nei Koe / Always On My Mind (translation) |
|---|---|
| Kei tōku ngākau nei koe | You are in my heart |
| I ngā wā katoa | At all times |
| Kei tōku ngākau nei koe | You are in my heart |
| Mahara tonu nei au | I still remember |
| Te hono tuatahi | The first link |
| Mātau tonu ana au | I still know |
| Me mōhio ahau | I need to know |
| Me tino mōhio ahau | I really need to know |
| Ka pō ko koe tōku ao | At night you are my world |
| Kei tōku ngākau nei koe | You are in my heart |
| Roa te taringa | The ear is long |
| Nāu ko tēnei waiata | This song is yours |
| Tē aro tāu i whiwhi | You received no attention |
| Kia ngaro rawa | Let it be completely lost |
| E kaha nei te aroha | Love is strong |
| Nāu i kapa ai te manawa, e kō | You call the breath, O kō |
| Kei tōku ngākau nei koe | You are in my heart |
| Koinā tāu mai | That's what you come from |
| Nāu i tuki ai te manawa, e kō | You broke my heart, oh |
| Ariki mai koe, ariki atu au | You are my lord, I am your lord |
| Wehi kore ahau, te puaki i ngā kupu | I am not afraid, to utter the words |
| Kei rongo pea ōku hoa | Maybe my friends will hear |
| Nā tōu āhua mai | Because of your appearance |
| Kei te hei piripiri | It’s going to be sticky |
| Homai nei i tō katoa | Give me your all |
| Kua huri nei tōku ao | My world has changed |
| Tē aro nei i a koe | I don't care about you |
| Nā konei me puaki | Hence the need to open up |
| Ko koe te katoa | You are everything |
| Tōku tino katoa | All my love |
| Kia kī noa mai koe | Just let me know |
| Nāu i kapa ai te manawa, e kō | You call the breath, O kō |
| Kei tōku ngākau nei koe | You are in my heart |
| Koinā tāu mai | That's what you come from |
| Nāu i tuki ai te manawa, e kō | You broke my heart, oh |
| Ariki mai koe, ariki atu au | You are my lord, I am your lord |
| Kei tōku ngākau nei koe | You are in my heart |
| I ngā wā katoa | At all times |
| Kei tōku ngākau nei koe, āe | You are in my heart, yes |
| Kei tōku ngākau nei koe | You are in my heart |
| I ngā wā katoa | At all times |
| Kei tōku ngākau nei koe | You are in my heart |
