Tarakihi
E, pakia kia rite
E, ko te rito kia rite
E, takahia kia ngawari
E, torona kei waho
Hoki mai
E whakarongo ai au
Ki te tangi mai
A te manu nei
A te tarakihi
I te weheruatanga o te po
Tara ra-ta kita kita (he!)
Tara ra-ta kita kita (he!)
Wiri o papa, towene, towene
Wiri o papa, towene, towene
Hope whai-a-ke
Turi whatia
Ei! Ei! Ha!
E, pakia kia rite
E, ko te rito kia rite
E, takahia kia ngawari
E, torona kei waho
Hoki mai
E whakarongo ai au
Ki te tangi mai
A te manu nei
A te tarakihi
I te weheruatanga o te po
Tara ra-ta kita kita (he!)
Tara ra-ta kita kita (he!)
Wiri o papa, towene, towene
Wiri o papa, towene, towene
Hope whai-a-ke
Turi whatia
Ei! Ei! Ha!
E, pakia kia rite
E, ko te rito kia rite
E, takahia kia ngawari
E, torona kei waho
Hoki mai
E whakarongo ai au
Ki te tangi mai
A te manu nei
A te tarakihi
I te weheruatanga o te po
Tara ra-ta kita kita (he!)
Tara ra-ta kita kita (he!)
Wiri o papa, towene, towene
Wiri o papa, towene, towene
Hope whai-a-ke
Turi whatia
Ei! Ei! Ha!
(He o e He!)
Clap in unison,
in unison, in unison.
Stamp your feet smoothly
Hands outstretched
then back.
I listen
to the cry
of this flying creature
of the cicada
in the middle
of the night.
Tara ra ta ki ta ki ta
.... cicada noises
Quivering rear end, whirring, whirring
Quivering rear end, whirring, whirring
Knees bent
hips swaying
Ei! Ei! Ha!
