Pokarekare Ana
Hayley Westenra Lyrics
Pōkarekare ana, ngā wai o Waiapu
Whiti atu koe hine, marino ana e.
E hine e, hoki mai ra
Ka mate ahau i te aroha e.
Tuhituhi taku reta, tuku atu taku rīngi
Kia kite tō iwi, raru raru ana e.
E hine e, hoki mai ra
Ka mate ahau i te aroha e.
E kore te aroha, e maroke i te rā
Mākūkū tonu i aku roimata e.
E hine e, hoki mai ra
Ka mate ahau i te aroha e.
Whati whati taku pene, kua pau aku pepa
Ko taku aroha, mau tonu ana e.
E hine e, hoki mai ra
Ka mate ahau i te aroha e

This song always makes me cry. I am a kiwi living in uk. My mum died nearly 2 years ago and we played this at the end of her funeral. So beautiful.

What a beautiful love song. I moved over here to New Zealand from America 6 years ago, it is so beautiful, I can see why so many love it. I am proud to be a part of it now, I hope to get "citizenship" next year.
