Te Karanga

Nothing stays the same

When everything has changed

It’s a lingering pain

We should always find a way

When love calls

Karanga mai

Māku koe e whai

Karanga mai rā

Māku koe e whai

Tukua kia rere

Ka kore kua kore

He mamae roa

Whaia ko te ara tika

When love calls

Karanga mai

Māku koe e whai

Karanga mai rā

Māku koe e whai

When love calls

Listen/Watch

Te Karanga - a translation

Call out to me

I’ll find/pursue you

Call out to me

I’ll find/pursue you

(this is directed to love personified)

Release it/Let it go

What’s gone is gone

An enduring pain

Find the right way (forward)
