lyrics

Pauātahanui
Judgeford and Rānui
Mana, Pukerua Bay
Cannons Creek, Titahi Bay
Paremata, Ascot Park
Takapūwāhia
From Camborne to Waitangirua
We all live in Porirua
Ko Porirua taku kāinga

Whakapiri mai
Whakatata mai
Ki te whenua haumako o Ngāti Toa
He oranga āwhinuku
He oranga āwhirangi
He oranga mō te marea
Kā puta, Kā ora!

We live in Porirua
The home of Ngāti Toa

Kenepuru, Plimmerton
Papakōwhai, Elsdon
Onepoto, Aotea
Whitby and Hongoeka
From Camborne to Waitangirua
We all live in Porirua

Pauātahanui
Judgeford and Rānui
Mana, Pukerua Bay
Cannons Creek, Titahi Bay
Paremata, Ascot Park
Takapūwāhia
Kenepuru, Plimmerton
Papakōwhai, Elsdon
Onepoto, Aotea

Whitby and Hongoeka
From Camborne to Waitangirua
We all live in Porirua
Afio mai i Porirua
