Pökarekare ana
ngä wai o Waiapu, 1
Whiti atu koe hine
marino ana e.
E hine e
hoki mai ra.
Ka mate ahau 2
I te aroha e.

Tuhituhi taku reta
tuku atu taku rïngi,
Kia kite tö iwi
raru raru ana e.

Whati whati taku pene 3
ka pau aku pepa,
Ko taku aroha
mau tonu ana e.

E kore te aroha
e maroke i te rä,
Mäkükü tonu i
aku roimata e


They are agitated
the waters of Waiapu,
But when you cross over girl
they will be calm.
Oh girl
return to me,
I could die
of love for you.

I have written my letter
I have sent my ring,
so that your people can see
that I am troubled.

My pen is shattered,
I have no more paper
But my love
is still steadfast.

My love will never
be dried by the sun,
It will be forever moistened
by my tears.

Lascia Ch'io Pianga

Hayley Westenra - Lascia Ch'io Pianga (aria from Handel's opera, Rinaldo)



Farinelli - Lascia ch'io pianga



Farinelli was the stage name of Carlo Broschi, an acclaimed castrato. To simulate Farinelli's vocal range, the movie's sound editors combined the voice of a female soprano (Ewa Małas-Godlewska) with a male countertenor (Derek Lee Ragin).

Philippe Jaroussky Handel Rinaldo "Lascia Ch'io Pianga"

Even weirder, "Farinelli" sings Pansori, Korean Aria
