Dreaming of New Zealand Far across the sea I feel my loved one Staying nearer to me Te Ika-a-maui Te Wai Pounamu Sweet sounds of Maori Remind me just of you Kei Te aroha au ki a koe You whispered I love you Sweet sounds of Maori Brought me close to you Walking by the seaside The ocean deep and blue An albatross flying over The moment I met you We climbed upon the highcliffs A path we'd never gone Standing close together We saw the golden sun Dreaming of New Zealand Far across the sea I feel my loved one Staying nearer to me Kei te aroha au ki a koe You whispered I love you Aoteraroa Reminds me just of you
