CHANT
Whakaronga ake au ki te tangi o te manu nei
Tui Tui Tui a
(Listen to the cries of the bird binding us together)
Tui a Runga
(Binding us from the heavens)
Tui a raro
(Binding us to the earth)
Tui a roto
(Binding us from within)
Tui a waho
(Bound from the outside)
Karongo te po
(The Dark proclaims the binding)
Karongo te au
(The light proclaims being bound)
Ti hei mauri ora
(Behold there is life)

V1
I walk down the street and I saw your face
I was home again, (I was home again)
and I often see that familiar place
I’m home again (I am home again)
we would spend our time singing songs and rhymes
till wed see the dawn again all my friends are near
and my family’s there hoping it would never ever end

CHORUS
(HOME HOME HOME HOME)
Reminiscing bout the days gone by
everything is clear now and I’m feeling fine
I recall a time when everybody was there
Mamas sitting here smiling it’s so good to be here

GUITAR SOLO

V2
When I’ve been away, know without delay
I’ll be home again, (I’ll be home again)
when the time is right, I’ll get on that flight
home is where the heart is day and night

CHORUS
Home Home Home Home – everything is clear now and I’m feeling fine
Home Home Home Home – mamas sitting there smiling its so good to be here

GUITAR SOLO
(Home 4x) Reminiscing about the days gone by

Ti hei mauri ora
(Behold there is life)
E nga reo E nga mana
(To many languages, to all the prestige)
E nga karanga ranga maha
(To the masses that salute)
Tena Koutou 3x Katoa
Ki taku whenua aoteroa
Karanga Karanga Karanga mai ra
(Hear the call to our homeland New Zealand)
