Glides Our Canoe

Lyrics

(Maori folk song)

Now up and now down glides our canoe
Onward to Waiariki,*
See, see how the waves part from her prow,
Singing to maunawa.

*The Waiariki is a sub-tribe that have connections at Whangaruru which is on the eastern part of the Taitokerau, New Zealand.” (source)
