[Gilbertese] Right Here

Lyrics

[INTRO]
Oh-oh yeah
Mm-mm
Toka likoko
Au heni

[VERSE 1]
Atu ni vave tātou i pōnei
Tāu mata e marū ai te vā
Ku‘u kitā nā te paoa e ngaro
Pehē ko te ao kua ‘ite au i te koho

‘A‘ua e mānako kia ‘atu
Ko tāu lima i toku lima
Pēhē mai te ananahi
‘A‘ua au e mataku ki a koe

[PRE-CHORUS]
‘A‘ua te āpōpō, ‘a‘ua te ananahi
Ko te hā‘ano nei, ‘a‘ua te tatari
Mā te ‘ite, noho tata
‘A‘ua e ‘ati, ku‘u heni

[CHORUS]
Heni, heni nei
Mā te ‘ite, ‘a‘ua e toka
Heni, heni nei
Ko te ngākau e pā‘oho

Pu‘ipui mai, ‘a‘ua e ngaro
I te vā nei, ‘a‘ua e ‘ālo
Heni, heni nei
Ko te katoa nei te ‘ati‘a

[DROP / CHANT]
Heni… heni…
Ku‘u heni
Heni… heni…
Noho heni

[VERSE 2]
Te ‘ālamā e kanikani i tāu kiri
Ko te māne‘a e huki mai
‘A‘ua te hopo ki te pōhaku
Te vā nei e ‘ite atu

Ki te pō e takoto i te ata
Ko au heni hei ‘āinga
‘A‘ua te mānako, ‘a‘ua te mataku
‘A‘ua e ‘ati, ku‘u heni

[PRE-CHORUS]
‘A‘ua te āpōpō, ‘a‘ua te ananahi
Ko te hā‘ano nei, ‘a‘ua te tatari
Mā te ‘ite, noho tata
‘A‘ua e ‘ati, ku‘u heni

[CHORUS]
Heni, heni nei
Mā te ‘ite, ‘a‘ua e toka
Heni, heni nei
Ko te ngākau e pā‘oho

Pu‘ipui mai, ‘a‘ua e ngaro
I te vā nei, ‘a‘ua e ‘ālo
Heni, heni nei
Ko te katoa nei te ‘ati‘a

[BRIDGE]
Ki te ao e marū
Ka rongo au i tāu mānava
Ki te mārama e ngaro
Ko koe anake kua rava

‘A‘ua te ‘ahunga, ‘a‘ua te mataku
‘A‘ua e ‘ati, ku‘u heni

[FINAL CHORUS]
Heni, heni nei
Ko te ‘akakā te ‘āinga
Heni, heni nei
‘A‘ua te kupu, kua ‘ite

Pu‘ipui mai, noho pono
Ko te aroha e ‘akakā
Heni, heni nei
Ko te katoa nei te ‘ati‘a

[OUTRO]
Heni… heni…
Ku‘u heni
Oh-oh yeah
Heni heni
