Kupe by Tipene Lyrics
Yeah I came like Kupe
Yeah I came like Kupe (like Kupe)
Journey on a Waka hourua that came right through here
(Right through here)
From Rangiatea Taputapuatea runs through here
(Runs through here)
Hawaiki nui Hawaikiroa
Hawaiki Pamamao
Indigenous Pao Pao Pao
Yeah I came like Kupe (like Kupe)
Journey on a Waka hourua that came right through here
(Right through here)
From Rangiatea Taputapuatea runs through here
(Runs through here)
Hawaiki nui Hawaikiroa
Hawaiki Pamamao
Indigenous Pao Pao Pao
Kupe I heard that he came to chase a wheke (chase a wheke)
And the name that came from his wahine (his wahine)
This probly wouldn't be our home at all (home at all)
Our home wouldn't be called Aotearoa (called Aotearoa)
The first Polynesian navigators Innovators
Purakau passed down through the generations
They say around 900 AD
Doesn't really matter if your ain't Māori
Kupe the man be the true OG (Be the real OG, be the triple OG)
I know every tribe has korero about Kupe
But who really sure kaore au te mohio
(Who really knows who really knows)
All I know one things consistent
The Ariki came from the distance
He was the first don't get it twisted
Yeah I came like Kupe (like Kupe)
Journey on a Waka hourua that came right through here
(Right through here)
From Rangiatea Taputapuatea runs through here
(Runs through here)
Hawaiki nui Hawaikiroa
Hawaiki Pamamao
Indigenous Pao Pao Pao
Yeah I came like Kupe
Yeah I came like Kupe (like Kupe)
