He rā paki i Te Pōporo
It’s a fine day at Bulli Point
Pōhutu i te wai pūāhuru
I dive into the water that embraces me
Ka hoki ngā mahara ki te ohinga o taku pāpā (o taku pāpā)
I think about my father when he was a child
He rā paki
It’s a fine day
Kia hīia ake te ika nui
Let’s catch the big one
Ka haea te kiri
Sliding the knife under the skin
Te oha ka mihia
Grateful for this offering
Katoa mai i tai, mai i uta (mai i uta)
And all the living things
Under the sun from land to sea
Ahureinga o te aroha
My love for you is endless
Tā te tamariki mahi, he wāwāhi tahā
Kids will be kids
E te tau, ka tau kē!
Baby boy, you’re super cool
He aha rā kei tua?
What does the future hold?
Ā tōna wā ka mōhio (mōhio)
Time will tell
Tai kato, kao mai ana te whai
The rays are gathering in the bay now
Whakarongo rā ki ngā manu a Rehua
Listen to the cicadas, the children of Rehua
Ngā ngaru o te moana
And the waves of the ocean
Kua tau nei a Hine-raumati
Hine-raumati, the Summer Maiden is here
Kua hora ko te paki o Hewa, o Rūhī ki te ao mārama
And there isn’t a cloud in the sky
E ngā uri o anamata
To my future descendants
Ka rite rā koe ki a wai rā?
Who will you resemble?
Ki ahau e noho nei, e pohewa ana?
Will you be like me, a daydreamer?
Ka noho atu ki tō ipo, kataina ai ngā whetū?
Will you spend time laughing at the stars with your lover?
Anō te whaea i te ohinga (i te ohinga)
Just like your mother when she was a girl
Whitikina koe e te rā, ko tō ātārangi ka mahue ki muri
May the sun shine upon you and cast your shadows behind you
He tānga manawa
Pause and breathe
Mauri ora (ora, ora, ora)
Live well
Kia hiwa (hiwa, hiwa, hiwa)
And tune in
I kitea rānei te māramatanga e āta whāia ana?
Did you find the enlightenment you seek?
Ka aro koe ki ngā tohu o te taiao
Heed the signs of the environment
Ki te ākau he ahikā
On the beach you’ll find your fort
Nā te tāwhaowhao ka mura
The firewood will be lit
Me āta kī mai kua eke rā te wā
You’ll let me know when the time is right
Nau mai rā, e Hine-i-te-awatea
Welcome, Hine-i-te-awatea, the Light Maiden
