Hoki Whenua Mai (Return The Land)

[Verse 1]
You wield your guns, you shot our sons
You made us rot in all you've done
Cut down our trees, brought your disease
You will not bring us to our knees

[Pre-Chorus]
You've stolen our children
My body is broken
Why did you come here?
You rule us with fear
You hate us, betrayed us
Tried to eliminate us
We have not forgotten
Our bodies are broken

[Chorus]
Tauiwi kaikiri, tauiwi kaikoohuru
Tauiwi taahae, hoki whenua mai
Tauiwi kaikiri, tauiwi kaikoohuru
Tauiwi weriweri, ka ea te patu iwi

[Verse 2]
You wield your guns, you shot our sons
You made us rot in all you've done
Cut down our trees, brought your disease
You will not bring us to our knees

[Bridge]
The lie became truth, you're to blame
You are a thief you feel no shame
My, my ancestors they call my name
We shall not rest, we will fight

[Verse 3]
You wield your guns, you shot our sons
You made us rot in all you've done
Cut down our trees, brought your disease
You will not bring us to our knees

[Chorus]
Tauiwi kaikiri, tauiwi kaikoohuru
Tauiwi taahae, hoki whenua mai
Tauiwi kaikiri, tauiwi kaikoohuru
Tauiwi weriweri, ka ea te patu iwi
