ChenPin- Mīhini Hou mō te paratha whakakī

Paratha Whakakī

Kua whiriwhiria marietiaMō ia ngau anake

He rauemi mata hou, he reka tonu

He kiri angiangi, he kirikiri, he matotoru te whakakī, he waiwai

Paraoa maha-paparanga i tāruatia kia pakari

Paratha Whakakī

I raro i te āhua koura ataahua, he angiangi te kiri maha-paparanga me te pepa

I muri i te ngau i te paru parai, he kakara tonu kei roto i ō ringaringa

He matotoru, he waiora hoki te whakakī

Paratha matotoru, whakakīia, taumaha

Kī tonu i te mīti tapatapahi, ngaua te wai kakara e huri ana i te arero

Kāore e taea e te tamaiti whiriwhiri te tatari ki te kai i ia rā

He whānau harikoa e kai ana

He koura te paratha, he waiwai, he reka hoki!

Ka rite ngā kai matua me ngā kai mātotoru i roto i ētahi mahi māmā noa iho

Kōwhiria he paraharaha, he paraharaha tunu hiko rānei, kāore e hiahiatia kia whakarewahia, kāore e hiahiatia kia paraihia te hinu, whakatuwherahia he ahi iti ka parai i ngā taha e rua, he ngāwari ki te kai.
