hiwa, hiwa, hiwa, hiwa

I wanna send my wishes up to Hiwa-I-te-Rangi
She's bright, she's shiny
She's a star of Matariki

Plant me in the ground facing Hiwa-I-te-Rangi
Say the prayers giving thanks
She's all-knowing Matariki

Give me an example
Give me a damn good example
Give me everywhere I go, show me I'm not on my own
Give me a damn good example
Give me a damn good lesson
Give me in my heart of hope are seeds of love for everyone

It's Hiwa
It's big Hiwa
It's Hiwa
It's long Hiwa
It's Hiwa expertise
It's Hiwa knowledge
The cluster of stars in the sky is clear
It's the foundation of your emergence
to the dark world
to the world of light (light)

The first star that I see tonight is Hiwa-I-te-Rangi
With all my heart
My wish providing plenty for my tribe

For bounty and harmony I ask Hiwa-I-te-Rangi
She's light, she's glowing
She's almighty Matariki
Give me an example
Give me a damn good example
Give me everywhere I go, show me I'm not on my own
Give me a damn good example
Give me a damn good lesson
Give me in my heart of hope are seeds of love for everyone
