Lyrics for Song: Mau Moko
Lyrics for Album: Mau Moko
Ono tekau ngÄ tau e kÅkiri ana (auÄ“) mÅ o mÄtou tikanga
He tata wareware te tuhi toi, I tata ngaro Å mÄtou ritenga
Koropehu Å mÄtou tÅhunga, ka pÄ“hia e te kuīnitanga
I parea mÄtou e te mana moko I Äu mahi kino
Ko te hunga mau moko mÄtou
E kore koe e mÄtau (e)
Te tikanga tÄmoko
KÅrero tuku iho
TÄngata Mau Moko
Kua horahia e koe te kiri MÄori hei whakaaturanga
Hoki mai te mana, nÄ te ao taihara I whakaora (e)
Ka whiua mai rÄ Å kanohi whakawÄ kei patu mai
OtirÄ, ka whakamarua mÄtou e te moko I tÅ mauÄhara
Ko te hunga mau moko mÄtou
E kore koe e mÄtau (e)
Te tikanga tÄmoko
KÅrero tuku iho
TÄngata Mau Moko
Mau Moko
Ko te hunga Mau Moko
Hoki mai te mana
KÅ wai mÄtou Ä“!
Ko nga tangata mau moko mÄtou
Kīhai koe e mÄmara
Ō mÄtou kÅrero tuhi kiri
Ō mÄtou kÅrero tuku iho!
Ko te hunga mau moko mÄtou
E kore koe e mÄtau (e)
Te tikanga tÄmoko
KÅrero tuku iho
TÄngata Mau Moko
Mohoao, makimaki, ao kÅhatu, kÅmuri Kao!
KÅ wai mÄtou Ä“!
Ko nga tangata mau moko mÄtou e!
Ko te hunga Mau Moko |
About Mau Moko
"Mau Moko" finds Alien Weaponry in a pop-minded frame, where a clear central idea and emotional directness are the real strengths. Its appeal comes from commitment to a single emotional temperature rather than from trying to impress through sheer scale. There is a welcome sense of proportion in the way the music presents itself: the hook has room to land, while the surrounding moments support it instead of competing for attention. Small changes in intensity keep the song moving and stop its main idea from becoming static, giving the performance a natural sense of flow. For listeners returning to Alien Weaponry, the song offers a compact example of how mood, pacing, and a recognizable point of view can meet in one place. The result is a focused piece of music that works in the moment but still has enough character to invite a return visit. The clarity of that approach is its own strength, because it lets the feeling come through without turning every moment into a dramatic demand. Even when it aims for immediacy, the track avoids feeling disposable because its atmosphere remains distinct after the final note. Its emotional center stays firmly in view throughout. |
