Stan Walker - He Kakano Ahau Lyrics

Stan Walker Lyrics

"He Kakano Ahau"

He kākano āhau
I ruia mai i Rangiātea
And I will never be lost
I am a seed, born of greatness
Descended from a line of chiefs
He kākano āhau

Ki hea rā āu e hītekiteki ana
Ka mau tonu i āhau ōku tikanga
Tōku reo, tōku oho-oho
Tōku reo, tōku māpihi maurea
Tōku whakakai marihi
My language is my strength
An ornament of grace

Ka tū ana āhau
Ka ūhia au e ōku tīpuna
My pride I will show
That you may know who I am
I am a warrior, a survivor
He mōrehu āhau

Ki hea rā āu e hītekiteki ana
Ka mau tonu i āhau ōku tikanga
Tōku reo, tōku oho-oho
Tōku reo, tōku māpihi maurea
Tōku whakakai marihi
My language is my strength
An ornament of grace
An ornament of grace
An ornament of grace
An ornament of grace
