Tatou o tagata folau e vala’auina
E le atua o le sami tele e o mai
Ia ava’e le lu’itau e lelei
Tapenapena

Aue, aue
Nuku I mua
Te manulele e tataki e
Aue, aue
Te fenua, te malie,
Nae ko hakilia mo kaiga e

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

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

Aue, aue, we are explorers reading every sign
We tell the stories of our elders
In the never ending chain 

Aue, aue
Te fenua, te mālie
Nā heko hakilia
We know the way
