Tarakihi Lyrics

Tarakihi E, pakia kia rite
E, ko te rito kia rite
E, takahia kia ngawari
E, torona kei waho
Hoki mai E whakarongo ai au -
Ki te tangi mai
A te manu nei, A te tarakihi,Elizabeth Marvelly - Tarakihi - http://motolyrics.com/elizabeth-marvelly/tarakihi-lyrics.html
I te weherua
Tanga O te po - Tara ra-ta kita kita
Tara ra-ta kita kita Wiri o papa towene towene
Wiri o papa towene towene Hope whai-a-ke
Turi whatia
