Tua - Stan Walker

I tipu mai au i te whārua e

Ahakoa te aha amu kore e

Kia whakarongo mai ki ō ui korekore ana

Ka whakaaro ake he aha te aha

E kore noa ētahi e rerekē

Kia mau ki ō pae tawhiti

Ahakoa te kōkēi

He mana nui tō te āki

Hei aha te whakaaro-iti

Tiro ki tua, tua rā e

Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e

Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa

Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua

Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua

He korokoro Tūī roto pakoro e

Kīia mai au e kore e rere

I mōhio au he nui noa atu rā

Tōku oranga, inā te hirahira

He oranga ngākau kei tua rā (kei tua rā)

Tiro ki tua, tua rā e

Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e

Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa

Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua

Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua

Kia mau ki ō pae tawhiti

Ahakoa te kōkēi

He mana nui tō te āki

Hei aha te whakaaro-iti

Tiro ki tua

Tiro ki tua

Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua

Tiro ki tua, tua rā e

Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e

Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa

Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua

I grew up in a valley

No matter what you eat don't

Listen to your free questions

Wondering what’s what

Some just aren’t different

Keep your sites remote

Even the ax

Push has great power

Why think-less

Look back and forth

Listen to the waters of the Lake

Don't be afraid to part with your river

Look back, look back, look back

Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua

Tūī throat inside barn e

Tell me not to run

I knew there were many more days

My life is very important

Life beyond (beyond)

Look back and forth

Listen to the waters of the Lake

Don't be afraid to part with your river

Look back, look back, look back

Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua

Keep your sites remote

Even the ax

Push has great power

Why think-less

Look back

Look back

Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua

Look back and forth

Listen to the waters of the Lake

Don't be afraid to part with your river

Look back, look back, look back
