Original lyrics
Hauloto/Pate Pate
Te hakiliiga o te hauloto
E mafai koe ke nofonofo
Tokatahi te auala
Taua mo tatou olaga
Tu mai hihiva mai pepehe malie malie
Matagi te agaga te mimita te
Hihiva o te hauloto (2x)
Fehiliiga o te mafaufau
Pe mafai ke mau he tautahi
Tatou he vaega
Kaiga o te lalolagi
Tu mai hihiva mai pepehe malie malie
Matagi te agaga te mimita te
Hihiva o te hauloto (2x)
Pate Pate
Hiva ki luga
Hiva ki lalo
Hiva malie
Pate Pate
Hiva ki luga
Hiva ki lalo
Hiva malie
Pate Pate
Aue aue
Aue aue
Aue aue
Aue aue
Tu la ki luga ke fai malama
Taimi tenei e fai na hiva
Tu la ki luga ke fai malama
Lue lue malie te gali o na hiva
Aue aue
Aue aue
Aue aue
Aue aue
Kikila mai la fakaakiali atu
E a mai tau faiva e a mai
Taku ika e fofou ai au
E a mai tau faiva e a mai
Hihiva ki luga
Hihiva mai ve
Hihiva malie ki te pate pate (5x)

Translation
Freedom/Log Drum
The search for freedom
From where you are
There is one way
That is treasured by us all.
Stand up. Sing and dance sweetly, sweetly
The warm wind is comforting
Dance freely with pride. (2x)
There is much soul searching
Though we try to do it on our own
We all belong
To the great family of the world.
Stand up. Sing and dance sweetly, sweetly
The warm wind is comforting
Dance freely with pride. (2x)
Log drum
Dance on up
Dance on down
Dance ever so sweetly
Log drum
Dance on up
Dance on down
Dance ever so sweetly
Log drum
Oh! oh!
Oh! oh!
Oh! oh!
Oh! oh!
Get up, stand up, let your feelings be known
The time has come to perform the dance
Get up, stand up, let your intentions be known
Swaying ever so sweetly to the message in the dance
Oh! oh!
Oh! oh!
Oh! oh!
Oh! oh!
Watch me now, it's my turn to show
How goes with your fishing, how is it?
The fish that I truly long for
How goes with your fishing, how is it?
Dance on up
Dance just like that
Dancing ever so sweetly to the rhythm of the log drums (5x)
