Te Popokorua raua ko te Tatakariki
Tatarakihi:
Hohoro mai e te hoa!
Kauaka e whakaroa, oi,
Arara! Ka tūrua tā te popokorua,
Rawe noa ta nga taki whakahau.
Popokorua:
Ūmai ki tē keri,
I te rua mo te ua o te rangi.
No te makariri, wero te po nei, e.
Me te kohi mai ano i te kakano, e.
Hei o ake mā tama roto
Kia ora ai, e, i.
Tatarakihi:
He pai aha koia taku he noho noa,
Piri ake ki te peha o te rakau, e!
Inaina noa ake ki te ra e whiti nei
Me te whakatangi kau i aku paihau, e.
