Tiaho mai to aroha Ka piata te wairua Ka hikitia ka hapaingia, Ka piata te wairua Chorus Ka hinga ana nga maunga Toitu ra te wairua Ka arahina e to ringa, Ka piata te wairua Ahakoa nga taumaha Ka piata te wairua Horahia to marama Ka piata te wairua Chorus I te po tiwaha, i te awatea Ka piata te wairua He wai karekare He wai aio Ka piata te wairua Chorus Shining with your love the spirit gleams Given support and lifted up your spirit gleams Chorus Mountains may be falling but the spirit remains undisturbed Led by your hand The spirit gleams Although you are ailing, your spirit gleams Lit by your moonbeam glow, your spirit gleams Chorus In the noisy darkness, in the middle of the day your spirit gleams On troubled waters or on waters mirror-still your spirit gleams Chorus
