Nga waiata a Ngāti Porou

Various songs composed by Sir Apirana Ngata and Arnold Reedy.

00.00 - 00.50: He mihi - kua mate te hunga e mohio ana. He kōrero whakamarama - he pao na Apirana i a ia i Poneke. No te hokinga mai ki te kainga nei ka mahia hei haka, ara, i te mea e kiia nei - action song.

00.50 - 03.49:

(1). Ma te hau tonga ra, mau atu te aroha
Ma te Hauauru e whakahoki mai e.

(2). Takoto te marino, ka hora te moana
Kei roto i ahau e ngarungaru ana e.

(3). Poupou te marama i runga o Hikurangi
Kei raro Ngaati e tangi hotu ana e.

(4). Tangata kino koe e hine takakore
Na reira o mahara e raruraru ai e.

(5). Ka mutu taku noho, hoki ki pikitia
Kei kite i o haerenga ka hoki tangi au e.

(6) Ma te hau tonga ra, mau atu te aroha
Ma te Hauauru e whakahoki mai e.

(7). Ka mutu taku noho, hoki ki pikitia
Kei kite i o haerenga, ka hoki tangi au e.

(8). Kore au e pai ki te piki wakena
Engari no to kaha, ka piki atu au e.

(9) Ka mutu taku noho, hoki ki pikitia
Kei kite i o haerenga, ka hoki tangi au e.

03.49 - 04.14: He waiata mo te haere ki te hui i Waitapu. Ko Tipi Kaa e waiata ana.
04.14 - 04.59:

Takiri ko te ata
I runga o Hikurangi
Kei raro a Porou
E tatari atu ana
Kia koe ra Apanui
Hei hoa toake
I te waka o Horouta
Ki Waiapu.

04.59 - 05.38: Ko nga tai-tamariki me nga pakeke o Ngāti Porou e waiata ana. Ko tenei waiata kei te uiui na wai ra. Tenei waiata na Apirana Ngata i timata ia te kaupapa he tangi ki a Te Haupai, tamahine a Te Torewa Green. I whai tata i muri i tera wa ko te hui o te whare karakia i Tikitiki, ka mahia he action song i reira. Te timatanga mai tena o tena waiata.
