    Lyrics:
    I tipu mai au i te whārua e
    Ahakoa te aha amu kore e
    Kia whakarongo mai ki ō ui korekore ana Ka whakaaro ake he aha te aha
    E kore noa ētahi e rerekē
    Kia mau ki ō pae tawhiti Ahakoa te kōkēi
    He mana nui tō te āki Hei aha te whakaaro-iti
    Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua
    Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua
    He korokoro Tūī roto pakoro e Kīia mai au e kore e rere
    I mōhio au he nui noa atu rā Tōku oranga, inā te hirahira He oranga ngākau kei tua rā (kei tua rā)
    Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua
    Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua
    Kia mau ki ō pae tawhiti Ahakoa te kōkēi
    He mana nui tō te āki Hei aha te whakaaro-iti
    Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua

Encouraging and inspirational. Massive singing talent Stan the man, love the back up singing, and love you lots, Stan. Keep succeeding.

    I feel silly as a New Zealander (Pākeha) not knowing a lot of Te reō Māori and only wish it was compulsory growing up. I know kids back in the day were smacked for using it, and it saddens me and I apologise on behalf of my European heritage that they did this to Māori and decimated their culture and language instead of being partners in preserving it. I hope we can turn this around and maybe one day we will all be fluent in it. Te reō Māori to me, and I really mean this, is the most beautiful language in the world and a song like this proves it.

    Such a beautiful language. It reminds me of our native language Alefuru from the Island Ceram, for certain words are the same. For example the numbers: rua and rima also means two and five in Alefuru language. And there are more examples. I love listening to your songs. It lifts me up, praising God in your beautiful language. Feels like home to me. God bless. Greetings from a Moluccan to a Maori.

    One of my favourites songs at the moment!
    I've been physically abused as a child, became addicted and homeless.
    Worked my ass off and am now well on the way to graduate in neuroscience.
    After my graduation I plan on moving to New Zealand and live closer to nature (no space for that in The Netherlands).
    Because of that I am learning Te Reo on the side and understand most of the lyrics in this song.
    This song keeps me going whenever everything feels as to much of a burden, it keeps my eyes on the prize and gives me the strength to keep moving forward. ❤

    2 days ago a voice coach/singer I follow reviewed this video. This led me to one of the best male singers/vocalist I have heard in a long time. Since then, I have been down the rabbit hole that is Stan Walker. All the way back to 2009. I am in awe of your voice, it literally speaks all the way to my soul. The message you bring through your music is amazing. I have not felt this strongly about an artist since Allen Stone. And as a fellow cancer survivor, to see you flourishing speaks to the your strength. Your new album is so good. I can't wait to see what is next. I am here for it!

    Tua Lyrics by Stan Walker
    I tipu mai au i te whārua e
    Ahakoa te aha amu kore e
    Kia whakarongo mai ki ō ui korekore ana
    Ka whakaaro ake he aha te aha
    E kore noa ētahi e rerekē
    Kia mau ki ō pae tawhiti Ahakoa te kōkēi
    He mana nui tō te āki
    Hei aha te whakaaro-iti
    Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e
    Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e
    Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa
    Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua
    Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua
    He korokoro Tūī roto pakoro e
    Kīia mai au e kore e rere
    I mōhio au he nui noa atu rā
    Tōku oranga, inā te hirahira
    He oranga ngākau kei tua rā (kei tua rā)
    Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e
    Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e
    Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa
    Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua
    Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua
    Kia mau ki ō pae tawhiti Ahakoa te kōkēi
    He mana nui tō te āki
    Hei aha te whakaaro-iti
    Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e
    Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e
    Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa
    Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua
    Tua, Tua, Tua, Tua
    Tiro ki tua, (ki) tua rā e
    Whakarongo ki ngā wai o Roto e
    Kei wehi i te wehenga i tō awa
    Tiro ki tua, tiro ki tua, tua

    I listened to this song and was overcome with emotions. I didn't understand the words. A day later, I came across the English version and simply broke down in tears. Thank you Stan, I needed this.

    Oh my heart! Stan, without a doubt, you are drop-dead gorgeous but, what I adore about you even more is your soul! Your voice has so much depth and is so naturally easy on the ears, like melted chocolate! Love that you sing Māori songs, so beautiful, and your niece just killed it at the end, so gorgeous and sweet! 💕 from 🇨🇦

    Music has no boundaries. No blocked borders. Music is an universal language. You may not comprehend the words, but you will definitely feel them. Its rythm. And our world it's full with it. What an amazing song. Priceless 🎶Tua, tua, tua🎶. It has become my favorite by this amazing person. Such a great artist.

    I so love this song! I came to Aotearoa in 1976 as a young adult. In 1993 I graduated from college as an ECE teacher with some knowledge of Te Reo. I learned to play the guitar as far as 3 chords, 😄. Throughout my 22 years as a Kaiako I played many different waiata to the Tamariki from 6 mnth to 5 years. I love the language and because of my mother tongue (Dutch) pronunciation was not too bad either. I also have great respect for the structure of the Marae which gives people a place to feel home and a sense of belonging. My advice for young Maori is connect with your marae, I wish I could. Because it is about He Tangata, He Tangata, He Tangata, Kiaora

    Love how smart the little girl is to move away from the Mic after she finishes so it won't pick up her breathing but then they all laugh at the end which really made the song as you can now tell it's truly live just beautiful
