Roimata

I wave hello, my smile is bright I am so gracious, so polite
Each time you pass me on the street and then I cry myself to sleep

Kata ana au me ōku hoa
Ka koa i tōku pai haere
Wehe ana ka mene ahau
Ka tangi au kātahi ka moe

Ka whiti te marama
Ka hokinga mahara
Ka haramai aku roimata

I wash my face, I brush my hair
I spray perfume, noone to care
Takoto ana i ōku hīti
Ka tangi au kātahi ka moe

Ka whiti te marama
Ka hokinga mahara
Ka haramai aku roimata
And then I cry myself to sleep
