Turuturu te ua i pata nui Ka veu te vai i Oroea
Ka peke te kua ki te Ikuta Aere aere taua kia araoa
E po teia ia ana i te ao ka ta
Tai mata purapura teia no runga no te tau ia
Uta I rere rere ei nga taunga to Korua
Tapua uri tapua tea
I nina ia ai te papa i Aitutaki
(Aitutaki i te rapa aia
Aia e taku ariki
Aia e taku atu)
I kiriti riti mata ia ai te upoko o te aitu e (pao ana ki te rua o) te toki
Ko maau koro matu
Taku e e ara
