Hark that sound yonder …
Hark that sound yonder!
Hark that sound yonder …
Hark that sound yonder!
Listen to the roar of the guns ...
on the hilltop at Pukehinahina
The earth trembles!
The lightning cackles
Bring on the fire
To the gates
(War cry)
The lightning cackles
Bring on the fire
To the gaping jaws
Of the monster
Death has arrived
You are mistaken!
The people below (The bones below)
In the tunnels (In the caves)
Death has arrived
You are mistaken!
(Wail of sorrow) …
the tears …
(Wail of sorrow) …
the dead and dying …
(Wail of sorrow) …
the flowing tears …
(Wail of sorrow) …
the flowing blood …
Onto the bosom of Mother Earth
Like mist ...
the people have vanished
Unleash death!
Like the joints of the canoe ...
we are woven together as one
Like the joints of the canoe ...
we are woven together as one
Like the joints of the canoe ...
we are woven together as one
Like the joints of the canoe ...
we are woven together as one
Like the joints of the canoe ...
we are woven together as one
