Hayley Westenra - Hine E Hine (maiden, O Maiden) lyrics
[Hayley Westenra - Hine E Hine maiden, O Maiden lyrics]
Kua ngenge ana koe hine, E Hine!
Kati to pouri ra noho i te Aroha
Te ngakau o te Matua hine, E Hine!
E Hari to moe moea hine, E Hine!
Marama ahua hine, E Hine!
I roto i to moenga mehemea he Marama
Ka tae mai te Reinga hine, E Hine!
Plaintive all through the night -
Hine, E Hine! Weeping till morning light -
Hine, E Hine! From my care why try to leap
There is love for you
Mother's arms their strength will keep
Hine, E Hine! See where there comes the morn
Hine, E Hine! Long rays of early dawn
Hine, E Hine! Shining to Reinga far
Where thy noble grandsires are nestle Aroha!
Hine, E Hine!
