My love song to the islands of the old tides, sung by the wonderful Missie Moffat, rapping by Jo Moon, recorded by Al Steedman at King St Studio New Plymouth

lyrics

How could it be, you re so beautiful
how could it be you re so green
there`s something here that I can`t describe
I think I`d like to try
to live an other live

in Aotearoa

Alone in water, in so many bays
room to seek, so much to find
watching the waves the whole afternoon
welcome the wind to my face
I just love this place

Aotearoa

I like the birds, listen how they fill this world
with many songs unknown
this here is your very special place
I hope you re here to stay
please dont go away

from Aotearoa

Your forests are, fires of green
Tane Mahuta still stands tall
the rivers whisper all night long
the stars shine so bright
on a magic night

The magic of New Zeland, a world full of live, we breathe the breath of the father and walk the earth of his wife
the birth of a brother come join us in this light, beneath these blue skies special synergy lies
let the mana of this land connect direct to your hand
our feet in the dirt united we stand
you and me together, the gift is our lives
we breathe the breath of the father and walk the earth of his wife
