Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
I fear the man who finds himself lost
– E wehi ana ahau i te tangata kua ngaro ia
In tales of war, delusions of more
– I roto i ngā kōrero o te pakanga, ngā whakaaro o ētahi atu
Beautiful boys, I wish you knew how precious you are
– E tama ataahua, e hiahia ana ahau kia mohio koe ki te utu nui o koe
Your mother’s, sister’s, lover’s heart is where there’s healing
– Ko te ngakau o tōu whaea, o tōu tuahine, o tōu hoa aroha te wāhi e ora ai
When a girl feels good, it makes the world go ’round
– Ki te pai te āhua o te kotiro, ka huri te ao
When the night feels young, you know she feels pretty
– I te wā e tamariki ana te pō, e mōhio ana koe he ataahua tōna āhua
A girl feels good, and the world goes ’round
– He pai te āhua o te kotiro, ā, ka huri te ao
Turn your love up loud to keep the devil down
– Tahuri tou aroha ake nui ki te pupuri i te rewera ki raro
When a girl feels good, you’ll know
– A, no te girl i te kotiro pai, ka mohio koe
When a girl feels good, you’ll know
– A, no te girl i te kotiro pai, ka mohio koe
When a girl feels good, she’s gonna keep you around
– Ka pai te āhua o te kotiro, ka noho tonu ia ki a koe
When a girl feels good, you’ll know (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh; Da-da-da)
– A, no teels pai te kotiro, ka mohio koe (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh; Da-da-da)
My city guy
– Ko taku tangata o te taone
Your boots on the gas of life
– Ko ōu hu i runga i te hau o te ora
Hurry up, baby, take your time
– Kia tere, e te tamaiti, tangohia tō wā
Don’t wanna force it, want you to touch it
– Kaua e hiahia ki te akiaki i te reira, e hiahia ana koe ki te pa ki te reira
My sweet demise
– Ko taku matenga reka
A man that doesn’t know his mind
– He tangata e kore e mohio ki tona hinengaro
It’s okay, baby, take your time
– He pai, e te tamaiti, tangohia tō wā
We’re gonna make it, wanna enjoy it
– Ka hanga e mātou, e hiahia ana ki te pārekareka ki a ia
When a girl feels good, it makes the world go ’round
– Ki te pai te āhua o te kotiro, ka huri te ao
When the night feels young, you know she feels pretty
– I te wā e tamariki ana te pō, e mōhio ana koe he ataahua tōna āhua
A girl feels good, and the world goes ’round
– He pai te āhua o te kotiro, ā, ka huri te ao
Turn your love up loud to keep the devil down
– Tahuri tou aroha ake nui ki te pupuri i te rewera ki raro
When a girl feels good, you’ll know
– A, no te girl i te kotiro pai, ka mohio koe
When a girl feels good, you’ll know
– A, no te girl i te kotiro pai, ka mohio koe
When a girl feels good, the honeybees to the flowers
– A, no teels i te kotiro pai, te honeybees ki te puawai
When a girl feels good, you’ll know (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
– A, no teels pai te kotiro, ka mohio koe (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(When a girl feels good, it makes the world go ’round)
– (A, no te girl pai te kotiro, hanga te reira i te ao haere ‘ a tawhio noa)
(When the night feels young, you know she feels pretty)
– (A, no te fe taitamariki te po, e mohio ana koe fe ia pretty)
(A girl feels good, and the world goes ’round)
– (He pai te ahua o te kotiro, a ka haere te ao ‘a tawhio noa)
(Turn your love up loud to keep the devil down)
