Lullaby
(English)
E tangi ana koe
Hine e hine
E ngenge ana koe
Hine e hine
Kati töpouri rä
Noho i te aroha
Te ngäkau o te Matua
Hine e hine.
You are weeping
(Little) girl, (little) girl
You are weary
(Little) girl, (little) girl
Be sad no longer
There is love for you
In the heart of the Father
(Little) girl, (little) girl.
