E tu Tuheitia
E noho Tuheitia te hiri o Waikato E huri to kanohi ki te hauauru Nga tai i ngunguru i waho Te Akau Aue Hei Aue! To pikitanga ko te Ao o te Rangi To heketanga ko Karioi maunga To hoenga waka ko Whaingaroa Aue hei Aue! Takahia atu ra te moana i Aotea Ki Whatiwhatihoe i te hua o te miro Te tihi o Moerangi te puke okiokinga Aue Hei Aue! Piua o mata ki Kawhia Moana Ki Kawhia Kai, Ki Kawhia Tangata Ko te kupu tena a o Tupuna Aue Hei Aue!


Me He Manu Rere
Me he manu rere au e
Kua rere ki to moenga
Ki te awhi to tinana
Aue, aue e                                                                                                    
te tau tahuri mai
Kei te moe te tinana
Kei te oho te wairua
Kei te hotu te manawa
Aue, aue! e
Te tau, tahuri mai


White wedding
Hey little sister what have you done
Hey little sister who's the only one
Hey little sister who's your superman
Hey little sister who's the one you want
Hey little sister shotgun
It's a nice day to start again
It's a nice day for a white wedding
It's a nice day to start again
Hey little sister who is it you're with
Hey little sister what's your welsse wish
Hey little sister shotgun oh yeah
Hey little sister who's your superman
Hey little sister shotgun
It's a nice day to start again
It's a nice day for a white wedding
It's a nice day to start again
Pick it up
Take me back home yeah
Hey little sister what have you done
Hey little sister who's the only one (only one)
I've been away for so long (so long)
I've been away for so long (so long)
I let you go for so long
It's a nice day to start again
Come on it's a nice day for a white wedding
It's a nice day to start again, wow
There is nothing fair in this world
There is nothing safe in this world
And there's nothing sure in this world
And there's nothing pure in this world
Look for something left in this world
Start again come one
It's a nice day for a white wedding
Wow, it's a nice day to start again
It's a nice day to start again



In the still of the night


In the still of the night
I held you
Held you tight
'Cause I love
Love you so
Promise I'll never
Let you go
In the still of the night
I remember
That night in May
The stars were bright above
I'll hope and I'll pray
To keep
Your precious love
Well before the light
Hold me again
With all of your might
In the still of the night
So before the light
Hold me again
With all of your might
In the still of the night
In the still of the night


Hitching a ride
Hey mister, where you headed?
Are you in a hurry?
I need a lift to happy hour say oh no
Do you brake for distilled spirits?
I need a break as well
The well that inebriates the guilt
One, two
One, two, three, four
Cold turkey's getting stale
Tonight I'm eating crow
Fermented salmonella poison oak no
There's a drought at the fountain of youth
And I'm dehydrated
My tongue is swelling up
I say one, two
One, two, three, four
Troubled times
You know I cannot lie
I'm off the wagon and I'm hitchin' a ride
There's a drought at the fountain of youth
And now I'm dehydrated
My tongue is swelling up
I say
Troubled times
You know I cannot lie
I'm off the wagon and I'm hitchin' a ride
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)


Fire ( Pointer sisters)


I'm ridin' in your car
You turn on the radio
You're pullin' me close
I just say no
I say I don't like it
But you know I'm a liar
'Cause when we kiss
Ooooh, fire


Late at night
You're takin' me home
You say you wanna stay
I say I wanna be alone
I say I don't love you
But you know I'm a liar
'Cause when we kiss
Ooooh, fire


You had a hold on me
Right from the start
A grip so tight
I couldn't tear it apart
My nerves all jumpin'
Actin' like a fool
Well, your kisses they burn
But my heart stays cool


Well, Romeo and Juliet
Samson and Delilah
Baby you can bet
A love they couldn't deny
My words say split
But my words they lie
'Cause when we kiss
Ooooh, fire


Ooooh, fire
Kisses like fire
Burn me up with fire
I like what you're doin' now
Fire
Touchin' me
Fire
Touchin' me
Burnin' me
Fire
Take me home

Rerenga wairua
Rerenga wairua
Tēnā whakarongo mai
Pāpaki tū ana
Ngā tai o Te Tokerau
Ueoneone rā
He tangata rangatira e
Nō te Aupōuri
Ngāpuhi nui tonu e
Taku ara taku mana
He wahine whakaiti
Reitū te wahine
Nō Tainui waka e
Nāna i moea*
Ko Ueoneone e
Ka puta ka ora
Tātou ngā uri e
Nō reira e te iwi
Kua mutu ngā mihi
Aku tangi kōrero
Aku tangi tikanga e
Noho iho e koro
Ko Ueoneone e
Ngā manaakitia
O te hunga runga rawa e

Ara Ngapuhi


Up above I have written some song lyrics about different songs. These songs are songs that our teacher taught us. All these songs are Maori and English. All the songs names can be featured at the top of the page. In black writing. 
The sites that I used to help me with the song lyrics are: The web ( Google) and Youtube
What I found challenging was: Trying to find the specific song lyrics because there are many varieties of songs surfing on the net.
What I found easy was: Writing the Maori songs because majority of them I already know them.
Next time I will work on: A better way to present my work.
