Waikato by TE KAAHU Lyrics
Waikato, auee, teenei ahau too mokopuna
Kia purea mai anoo e ngoou waiaroha
Tooku awa koiora me ngoou pikonga he kura tangihia o te maataamuri
E rere Waikato ē, tooku whaea
Waikato ko koe hei manawa moo toou iwi
E kore e wehea koe he mauri tuutahi ee
Waikato horopounamu auee
Waikato toimaha rau
E rere ee, tooku whaea ee, tooku tupuna - auee toou mana
Te awa e rere iho nei
He wai oranga
Kaumaatua ake maatou i ngoou wai manaaki
E rere, e kato koe aake ake, tooku Waikato
Kia purea mai anoo e ngoou waiaroha
Tooku awa koiora me ngoou pikonga he kura tangihia o te maataamuri
E rere Waikato ē, tooku whaea
Waikato ko koe hei manawa moo toou iwi
E kore e wehea koe he mauri tuutahi ee
Waikato horopounamu auee
Waikato toimaha rau
E rere ee, tooku whaea ee, tooku tupuna - auee toou mana
Te awa e rere iho nei
He wai oranga
Kaumaatua ake maatou i ngoou wai manaaki
E rere, e kato koe aake ake, tooku Waikato
