He Waiata Pakeha.

Air:- "Tis the Last Rose of Summer." Koe pu a i te wa-ru, Tis the last rose of sum-mer, Tu pa-ni kau-nei; Left Ijlooin-ing a-lone; Nga i po-ra we-ta-hi All lier love-ly com-pan-ions He mo-noa ra e: Are fa-clecl and gone: Hore kau kia hu a-nga, No flower of her kin-dre'd, E ta-ta ta inai, No rose-bud is nigh, A mi-hi koe pa ku-ra, To re-flect back her blush-es, A 1 ngo mai ai! Or give sigh for sigh! Ko re koe e ma hue, 111 not leave thee thou lone one, Kia ko no hi noa, To pine on the stem ; Kei te mo-e to nu-i, Since the love-ly are sleep-ing, Me whai a tu koa. Go sleep thou with them. Maku e-a ta ru-i Thus kind-ly I scat-ter O rau kite wa, Thy leaves o'er the bed, Ou lio a ite wha-nga Where thy mates of the gar-den Te whai-ka ka ra. Lie scent-less and dead. Maha ku ra e a-ru, So soon may I fol-low, ko-re tau-e, When friend-ships de-cay, I Nga ka pa-e hi-ra And from Love's shi-ning ci-rcle Koe hoa re re-ke! The gems drop a-Avay! Apu nga kau ka ngo-he, When true hearts lie with-er'd, A hi pa te rau, And fond oues are flown, Ko wai ra hei-no-ho Oh ! who would in-lia-bit Te ao a nu-kau ? This bleak world a-lone ?
