Roimata (Cry Myself To Sleep)

One, two

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 hoki ngā mahara
Ka haramai aku roimata

I wash my face, I brush my hair
I spray perfume, no-one to care
Takoto ana i ōku hiti
Ka tangi au kātahi ka moe

Ka whiti te marama ka hoki ngā mahara
Ka haramai aku roimata

Ka tangi au kātahi ka moe

And then I cry myself to sleep
