| Ka pioioi1 e Tohu aroha haukāinga E hoki mai rā Kia kite atu i tō iwi e. E rotarota ana E katakata ana mai rā. Pūkana whetero mai I te ihi ā ō mātua. Kia kite atu ano I tō ataahua ai kanapa Pupuhi ai e te hau Kapohia āku roimata. Ka pioioi he tohu aroha haukāinga. | This swaying dance shows the love of your home-town people. You've come back home, to see your people. There is gesturing and laughing with joy at your return, Eyes popping and tongues thrusting from the energy of those performing. I see again your beauty gleaming there caressed by the wind, and my tears are snatched away. This fluttering dance shows your home-town people's love. |
1 Pioioi emulates the flutterering flight of the fantail. This insect-catching bird is small and delicate, yet fearless and sociable.
