Pōkarekare Ana on Ukulele - Traditional New Zealand Māori Waiata

Hi! Thanks for checking out this video!
This is a traditional New Zealand Māori waiata (song) called Pōkarekare Ana. I am playing an instrumental version of the song in this video, with the single notes representing the original vocal melody. The ukulele in this video is a Halona UKT 25 tenor uke.
Here are the original Māori lyrics -
Pōkarekare ana, ngā wai o Waiapu, whiti atu koe hine, marino ana e.
E hine e, hoki mai ra, ka mate ahau, i te aroha e.
Tuhituhi taku reta, tuku atu taku rīngi, kia kite tō iwi, raru raru ana e.
E kore te aroha, e maroke i te rā, mākūkū tonu i, aku roimata e.
Whati whati taku pene, ka pau aku pepa, ko taku aroha, mau tonu ana e.
E hine e, hoki mai ra, ka mate ahau, i te aroha e.
