Lyrics:
Aria mai
Soasoa mai
Sau taua tau ukulele x2
Himene tatou e
Na raro mai te tumu niu e
Vitiviti mai koe
Akatangi tatou e
Kite hurahura tamure,
Neke mai
To te pae Tokerau
Ete pae Tonga
Akatangi mai to Rarotonga
Akatangi mai to Araura
Rakau ukalele,
Neke mai
To te pae Tokerau
Ete pae Tonga
Akatangi mai to Pukapukaa
Akatangi mai to Mangaia
Rakau ukalele
Tapiri mai koe te teina tuakana
Te fuinga o niva
Tapuaua tanga e
Kia hakarongo koe na mea ote fare
Te tangi nei
Ite rakau ukalele x2
Akatokamanava Nukuroa x2
Enuamanu akaieie te tangi ukalele Ngaputoru x2
Sailo
Te tini o Mahuta
Saruru ite ata mamaiata x2
Te Kuki Airani taku peu tupuna x2
