I whānau mai au i te tau nihoroa
I was born in a time of scarcity
I te kāinga
At home
Moepapa ana, i te kohiko o te kāmera
Nightmares caused by the flash of cameras
Noho tahanga ana i te motu
I sit in solitude on an island
E karawhiu mai ana a Tāwhiri
Tāwhiri, the god of the elements, is raging
Hei aha māku ngā whakapōrearea
But I won't be bothered by any distractions
Ka tūkinotia ngā kīngi o Īhipa
The kings of Egypt are being desecrated
I te whare taonga o Te Āporo Nui
In the chamber of treasures in New York City
Kei hea rā te tikanga, e hoa mā?
Have we lost our way, my friends?
Ehara au i te kaiwhakaora, tino kore nei
I am not your saviour
Kia noho au hei whakaāio whenua, tino kore nei
Nor am I the pacificator
E noho matakerekere ana
I ahatia ō tātou moemoeā?
We are caught in a daze
What’s happened to our dreams?
Whitikina te ara tika (ara, ara, ara)
May the sun shine upon the right path
Kaiwhakaora
The saviour
Whitikina te ara tika
May the sun shine upon the right path

Lorde bringing Māori into the spotlight. This is so inspiring! 🙌

the maori culture is just stunning. what a gorgeous surprise.

Wow the fact that she changed the lyric to “the kings of Egypt are bring desecrated” really gives a meaning to that part of the original song that I didn’t realize before
225 |
these maori versions of all her songs are so stunning (again, so impressed by the translators)

The way all the proceeds from TE AO MĀRAMA will go to Forest & birds and TE Hua Kawariki Charitable trust is so amazing. Lorde doing so much for nature conservation. Queen behaviour

I'm so happy she decided to do this. Honouring the people of the land she lives in. Now I can't help but think what songs like Buzzcut Season would sound like in Maori 😌

Lorde really cares about nature, we should support her. Not many ppl cares about nature right now, lol

Human life is made like a piece of music. Following the perception of beauty, man turns an event back and forth in order to find a perspective for the piece of music in his life.

I am loving this Lorde please keep the positivity and messages coming. We all appreciate you and what you are doing.

I was literally thinking the other day she should do something like this! I’m glad she acknowledged the culture of the natives.
31 |
She's being active this year, I love it 😭😭

I'm having a mental breakdown, this came out of nowhere and I'm loving it 😩❤️

five seconds in, and i already start to feel this cleansing my soul
27 |
This came out of nowhere and this is my new religion
29 |
I never knew anything about the maori language or culture before,but listening to these versions makes me even more happy 🥺

Every thing Lorde does makes me love her even more. This is so lovely.

“the kings of Egypt are being desecrated,
in the chambers of treasures in New York City,
have we lost our way, my friends?”
