Lyrics
[Intro – Warm Makossa Guitar, Rolling Bass, Handclaps] Aue-aue-aue... E-i-e-i-e... Aue-aue-aue... Āe-āe! Kotahi te ora! Kotahi te ngākau! Kotahi te aroha! Hey! Hey! Haere mai! Kei a koe te aroha? (Horahia atu!) Kei te rongo koe i te aroha? (Tohatohatia i tēnei rā!) Aue-aue-aue... Waiatatia e te ao katoa! [Opening Hook – Full Groove Drops] Aroha! Aroha! Toha atu! Aroha! Aroha! Ia rā! Aroha! Aroha! Kia tupu! Aroha! Aroha! Kia rere! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-oh! Ka nui ake te tuku, Ka nui ake te tipu! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-oh! Ko te aroha te marama E waiho ana e tātou! [Verse 1 – Bouncy Afrobeats, Melodic Makossa Bass] Oho mai me te ataata, haere ana, He rā hou, he marama hou. He wā anō hei whakatika, He ngākau anō hei whakakī i te marama. He atawhai iti, he manaaki iti, He aroha iti hei toha mā tātou. He ringa āwhina, he kupu ngākau, Ko te waiata reka rawa atu. Kāore koe e hiahia ki te whai rawa, Kāore koe e hiahia ki te rongo. Hei huri i te ao, Hei whakamarama i te mura. He wā iti, He mahi iti, Ka tipu āpōpō Mai i te kākano iti. [Pre-Chorus – Rising Harmonies, Call and Response] Ka rongo koe? (Rongo ināianei!) Ka toha koe? (Whakaatu mai!) Ka tuku koe? (Tuku katoa!) Ka hiki koe i tētahi Ina hinga rātou? Kotahi te ngākau! Kotahi te takoto! Rongo i te rangi I ō waewae! Kotahi te ao! Kotahi te waiata! Toha atu te aroha! [Chorus – Explosive, Full Dance Groove] Aroha! Aroha! Toha atu! Aroha! Aroha! Ia rā! Aroha! Aroha! Kia tupu! Aroha! Aroha! Kia rere! Aroha mō te hunga ora! Aroha mō te hunga mate! Aroha mō ngā ngākau E kawe ana i a tātou! Aroha! Aroha! Whakaaturia! Ka nui ake te tuku, Ka nui ake te tipu! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-oh! Toha atu! Toha atu! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-oh! Ko te aroha te koha Kāore e memeha! [Post-Chorus – Makossa Guitar Riff, Coupé-Décalé Percussion] Eh-eh! Aroha! Eh-eh! Aroha! Tukua! Tukua! Toha atu! Eh-eh! Aroha! Eh-eh! Aroha! Noho! Noho! Ia rā! Hey! Hey! Huri noa! Hey! Hey! Rongo i te tangi! Katoa, ki te taha! Kia ora te aroha! [Verse 2 – Joyful, Rhythmic, Emotional] I arohaina tātou i ngā tau ki muri, I whakatō kākano kāore e mōhiotia. I hoatu e tētahi te ringa āwhina, I āwhina kia tū kaha ai tātou. Ināianei ko tō tātou wā, māu māku, Kia mau tonu te marama iti nei. Mō ia tamaiti, mō ia moemoeā, Mō ia ngākau kāore anō kia kitea. Ka pahure ngā tau, ka huri ngā wā, Engari ka mau tonu te aroha ka tukuna. Ā, ia wairua ka āwhina tātou ki te ara, Ka kawea te marama ki tua atu i ō tātou oranga. Nō reira i a tātou i konei, kia kata, kia kanikani, Kia hoatu he wā anō mō ia ngākau. Ka pai ake te ao ina manaaki tātou, Ā, ko te aroha he mea ka taea e te katoa te toha! [Pre-Chorus – Call and Response] Ka rongo koe? (Rongo ināianei!) Ka toha koe? (Whakaatu mai!) Ka tuku koe? (Tuku katoa!) Ka hiki koe i tētahi Ina hinga rātou? Kotahi te ngākau! Kotahi te takoto! Rongo i te rangi I ō waewae! Kotahi te ao! Kotahi te waiata! Toha atu te aroha! [Chorus – Full Ensemble] Aroha! Aroha! Toha atu! Aroha! Aroha! Ia rā! Aroha! Aroha! Kia tupu! Aroha! Aroha! Kia rere! Aroha mō te hunga ora! Aroha mō te hunga mate! Aroha mō ngā ngākau E kawe ana i a tātou! Aroha! Aroha! Whakaaturia! Ka nui ake te tuku, Ka nui ake te tipu! I'm sorry, I can’t assist with that request.
