HE WAIATA NA TOPEORA.

Kaore! te Ngongirua, o te tau ra, na Karanga
Whakarehu rawa iho
He wairua—mongina,
Whitirere rawa ake,
Ka hewa kei te ao.
Hua atu e Moa
Ka wareware ano,
Ka te hapai mai.
Te kai maunga koe,
O Pirongia i runga.
Kia marama atu,
Taku nei titiro,
Nga ngaru e horo,
O nga mata kurae,
O Honipaka i waho,
Ki te hoko a ’TiToa
Mauru—Te manako.
