Taniwha

Taniwha

The Taniwha,
It has a large white slippery body,
It moves mountains,
And the man in his way,
Watch out for Taniwha,
Offer a sweet potato,
When in the water,
He likes to take,
Pretty young women,
To be his bride,
Down under the waves,
Where no one can hear them cry.

Taniwha

Te Taniwha
E ia he tinana pahekeheke ma nui
Neke te reira i maunga
Me te tangata i tona ara
Kia mataara mo te taniwha
Whakahere he ri(-)wai reka
A, no te I roto i te wai
He pai ki a ia te tango i nga kotiro taitamariki
Ki te hei wahine mana
Iho i raro i nga ngaru
Hea e taea e kore tetahi rongo tangi ratou.

-PPM
