[Intro/Whakaupoko]
Mm, yeah

[Verse 1/Tahi Whiti]
I tipu mai au i te whārua e
Ahakoa te aha amu kore e
Kia whakarongo mai ki ō ui korekore ana
Ka whakaaro ake he aha te aha
E kore noa ētahi e rerekē

[Pre-Chorus/Korihi Mua]
Kia mau ki ō pae tawhiti
Ahakoa te kōkēi
He mana nui tō te āki
Hei aha te whakaaro-iti

[Chorus/Korihi]
Tiro ki tua, (Ki) tua rā e
Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e
Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa
Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua

[Post Chorus/Korihi Tukuna]
Tua
Tua
Tua
Tua
[Verse 2/Rua Whiti]
He korokoro Tūī roto pakoro e
Kīia mai au e kore e rere
I mōhio au he nui noa atu rā
Tōku oranga, inā te hirahira
He oranga ngākau kei tua rā (Kei tua rā)

[Chorus/Korihi]
Tiro ki tua, (Ki) tua rā e
Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e
Kеi wehi i te wehеnga i tō awa
Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua

[Post Chorus/Korihi Tukuna]
Tua
Tua
Tua
Tua

[Bridge/Whakamatuatanga]
Kia mau ki ō pae tawhiti
Ahakoa te kōkēi
He mana nui tō te āki
Hei aha te whakaaro-iti

[Chorus/Korihi]
Tiro ki tua, (Ki) tua rā e
Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e
Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa
Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua
[Post Chorus/Korihi Tukuna]
Tua
Tua
Tua
Tua
Tua
Tua
Tua
Ti-tiro ki
Tua

[Chorus/Korihi]
Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e
Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e
Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa
Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua
