IHENGA Lyrics:
Ka tu au runga Maketu
[I stand here in Maketu]
Te kaihopara o te ao
[The explorer of the land]
Ka huri au ki uta
[I turn inland]
Kia Kaituna, ki ana matou puku
[To Kaituna, where our bellies are filled]
Mai nga kuri nga inanga puta mai
[The dogs have thrown up whitebait]
E piki te maunga, titiro e...
[I climb the mountain and see]
Ko Te roto i kite a Ihenga!
[The lake I saw (Lake Rotoiti)]
Te motu tapu a Tinirau!
[The sacred island of Tinirau]
Roto i te Rotorua nui a Kahumatamomoe!
[In the second larger lake of Kahumatamomoe]
Huri matou ki te tuaraki
[We turn to the North]
Ki te Manuka, komohia te pou!
[To the Manuka (Manukau), where we place a stake in the ground to claim this place]
Ki te Kaiparapara a Kahumatamomoe!
[To the Kaiparapara (Kaipara) of Kahumatamomoe]
Ki nga puku ano...
[Where we fill our bellies again]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ka hapai ki te tuaraki
[We continue North]
Runga i te Wairoa kia Kawakawa
[Along the Wairoa river, towards Kawakawa]
Ki te Kai hu ki te Waikereru!
[To the place of the secret meal and Waikereru]
Kia Ruapekapeka! me te Motatau
[To Ruapekapeka, and Motatau]
Me te Tapu waewae haruru me Te wahi whakata
[To the place of resounding footsteps and the place of self reflection]
Ka huri matou ano...
[We turn once again]
Ano ki Whangarei!
[Again towards Whangarei]
Ki Te ahi pupu
[To Te ahi pupu]
Piki ake Whatitiri maunga
[I climb mount Whatitiri]
E kapo te uira!!!
[The lightning cracks]
Te maunga Moehau!!!
[The mountain Moehau]
E piki ana!!!
[I climb]
