This chant talks of the voyage of the Uruao waka from the
ancestral homelands of Patunuioāio ki Aotearoa.
Terea te waka e!
Terea taku waka unua
Terea taku waka tupuna
Terea taku waka kautere
Ka wero tōna ihu i kā puke moana
Ka tae ki te whenua
Ko Te Kāhui Tipua
Ko te Kāhui Roko
Ko Te Kāhui Waitaha e
Matiti ki te Ao, Uruao ki ruka
Taku waka pākakano
Ka eke panuku
Eke Takaroa
Haumi e
Hui e
Tāiki e
