Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
Fly me to the moon
– Rere mai ki te marama
Let me play among the stars
– Kia tākaro ahau i waenganui i ngā whetū
And let me see what spring is like
– A kia kite ahau he aha te puna rite
On a-Jupiter and Mars
– I runga i te a-Jupiter me Mars
In other words, hold my hand
– Arā, kia mau ki toku ringa
In other words, baby, kiss me
– Arā, e te pēpi, kihi mai i ahau
Fill my heart with song
– Whakakiia toku ngakau ki te waiata
And let me sing forevermore
– A kia waiata ahau ake ake
You are all I long for
– Ko koe anake taku e hiahia ana
All I worship and adore
– Ko aku mea katoa e karakia ana, e koropiko ana
In other words, please be true
– I roto i te mau parau te tahi atu, tēnā kia pono
In other words, I love you
– Arā, e aroha ana ahau ki a koe
Fill my heart with song
– Whakakiia toku ngakau ki te waiata
Let me sing forevermore
– Kia waiata ahau mō ake tonu atu
You are all I long for
– Ko koe anake taku e hiahia ana
All I worship and adore
– Ko aku mea katoa e karakia ana, e koropiko ana
In other words, please be true
– I roto i te mau parau te tahi atu, tēnā kia pono
In other words, in other words
– I ētahi atu kupu, i ētahi atu kupu
I love you
– Aroha ana ahau ki a koe
