Aroā





Kōngū te tahatū

Pūrehurehu

Ki hea anga ai

Wetea, te whakatau

He haerenga hāngai

Nā ka huri kē

Tē tiro iho rā

Ka rongo whenua

Me he papa mahea

Tau mai aroā

Tō iho te rā

I ōna hua

Ka maru te aotea

Tē kite, auare ake

Hāuaua

Ka anga tonu ai


Tē tiro iho rā

Ka rongo whenua

Te ahunga mai

Me he papa mahea

Te ara ki tua

Tau mai aroā

Te ahunga mai

Te ara ki tua 



 

Aroā (Know How) - a translation

Can’t see the horizon

Covered in a white haze 

Where’s our direction?

 

Breaking down, our decisions

We were going one way

and now it’s hectic

I don’t need to look down

I can still feel the ground

Where we come from

It’s a blank canvas now

Where we’re going

In the end, we’ll know how...

 

… long will the sun hide

Holding all the right ways

Beneath the daylight

 

Can’t see now but it’s alright

I can feel a warm ray

Enough to get by

Where we come from

Where we’re going
