Moana -- anei, anei!
Moana kia mōhio mai
Ko runga a Motu-Nui
Mōhau rā
Hihi ana te haka
He haka tahito nā
(Hai aha te haka hou, pai kē tēnei)
He tikanga tuku iho
E Moana, kei pokea koe (Anei)
Kei tūtuki tō waewae
(I) tō mahinga
Ka tuari ngā rawa (rawa)
Ka hangarau, ka raranga (aha)
Ka hoki mai ngā tāngata hī
Kei hea hoki
Kei huri kē
Moana kia tū tangata
Mā wai rawa e taurima
Māhau rā
Kia tae te wā
Ka pai nā te titiro
Ko runga te kāinga nei
Mōhau rā
Inā rā te hua-nati (te aha?)
Te rākau hoki
Katoa o te hua-nati
He oranga
He whītau te kaharoa
Ka reka te wai i roto
Ngā rau hoki mō te ahí
Ka tunua ā-roto
Inā rā te hua-nati
Te tumu hoki
Mā te motu e manaaki
Tē mawehe
Ka nōhia
Tēneki āhurutanga
Ka wawata whakamua
Mōhau rā
Nā wai koe
Ka tau pēnei i ahau e
Kimihia te oranga
I konei rā
Pai te kori me te wai nei
Te tai-miti, te ngaru
Te wai nei he hīanga (ha!)
Nanakia, haututū
Ka kīia ahau he wawi
Te pōhēhē hoki rā
Aua atu pārekareka kē
Inā
Kōrua ko tō pāpā
He whakakeke e
Kia mau heoi, kia mataara
[Ki] te reo iti i roto kē
Kia whākoakoa mai rā
Kia whāia atu ngā whetū
Moana, nōhau te reo rā
Nōhau rā
He whītau te kaharoa
(Ka raranga kaharoa)
Ka reka te wai i roto
(Pārekareka roto)
Ngā rau hoki mō te ahí
(He waiata mā te kapa)
Ka tunua ā-roto
(Kia ngata te hia kai)
[Ka] pono mai te kāinga
(Ha - ana!)
Tauāwhiwhi
(Ha)
Mā te motu e manaaki
Tē mawehe
Nā, ki konei
Au ka noho me te iwi
Kia tū tahi, tū tangata
Tātau rā
Kōkiritia
Te iwi hoki hai awhi
Tātau ka mua te haere
I te kāinga
Ia te ara, ka hoki
I te kāinga
Ka kimi i te aroha
I te kāinga
Te kāinga
