lyrics

Tihe ̄ winiwini
Tihe ̄ wanawana
Tihe ̄ Mauriora!
(I wriggle, I jump, I sneeze & I am born)

Ka oma te tamaiti
Ka tipu te tamaiti
Ka harikoa te Manawa
(The child grows, The child runs, the heart is happy)

Mai i te taiohinga
Mai I te taiohinga
(Along come the teenage years)

Ka puta mai he po ̄he ̄he ̄
Ka puta mai he po ̄he ̄he ̄
(Along comes rebellion)

Hau ana te ha o Tawhiri
Hau ana te ha o Tawhiri
(The breath of Tawhirimatea changes)

Ano ̄ nei he ha ̄mana
Ano ̄ nei he ha ̄mana
(And like the Salmon)

Ka whawhaitia te wai
Ka whawhaitia te wai
(I fight the Water)

Kia kitea to ̄ku moenga
(Let me find my bed)

Na ̄ wai, a ̄,
Ano ̄ nei he Kahuku
Na ̄ wai, a ̄,
Ano ̄ nei he Kahuku
(After a while I turn into a Monarch butterfly)

Ka rere i te hau
Ka rere ki tawhiti
Ka moe ake te kaiwawata
(To fly with the wind, To fly far away, The dreamer sleeps)

Little Bushman New Zealand

Built on the shoulders of classic 60s psychedelic rock, lyrical folk and contemporary New Zealand blues music, Wellington quartet “Little Bushman” exemplify unpredictable, sincere musical explorations. Filtering the real, the unreal and things worth standing up for into song, this is music optimistically dreaming of a better tomorrow, re-imagined one note at a time. Enjoy! Peace, Little Bushman ... more
