Tatou o tagata folau e vala'auina

G 
We read the wind and the sky 
When the sun is high 
We sail the length of sea 
On the ocean breeze 
C                      D 
At night we name every star 
                 G 
We know where we are 
We know who we are, who we are 

C 
Aue, aue 
G 
We set a course to find 
D                       G 
A brand new island everywhere we row 
C 
Aue, aue 
G 
We keep our island in our mind 
D 
And when it’s time to find home 
We know the way 

C 
Aue, aue 
       Em 
we are explorers reading every sign 
G                          D 
we tell the stories of our elders 
                     C 
in the never ending chain 

Aue, aue 
Em        G 
te fenua, te malie 
D 
Nae ko hakilia 
               G 
We know the way
