Ngā Ara, kawea                           Country roads, take

au ki te kāinga (ki tōku kainga)                                                me home to the place I belong

Aotearoa (aa) ki ngā Maunga                                               New Zealand  to the mountains                                                              

kawea e ngā ara                                                                          Take me home, country roads

He hiranga te whenua me ngā maunga rere ai ngā awa       Remarkable- The Lands, The Mountains, the flowing rivers

Ora tūroa ake i ngā tī                                                                   Life is old there, older than the trees                                                                          

raro i ngā maunga me he hauangi                                            Younger than the mountains Growing like a breeze

Ngā ara, kawea                                                                             Country roads, Take

au ki te kāinga                                                                              me home to the place I belong

kawea e ngā ara                                                                           Take me home, country roads

All my memories gather 'round her

Miner's lady, stranger to blue water

Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, 

Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye

Country roads take me home 

to the place I belong

Aotearoa mountain mama 

take me home country roads

Ka rongo au i tana karanga 'Hoki mai'                                           I hear her calling me to return

Hoki mahara ki te kāinga rā kei tawhiti                                         My thoughts return to my home, far away

Ka whakaaro au, te āhua nei me hoki kē ahau inanahi, nanahi!'I get a feeling that I should have been home yesterday

Ngā ara, kawea                                                                                  Country roads, Take

au ki te kāinga                                                                                    me home to the place I belong

Aotearoa ki ngā Maunga                                                                  New Zealand, to the mountains

kawea e ngā ara                                                                                

Ngā Ara, kawea 

au ki te kāinga (ki tōku kainga)

Aotearoa (aa) ki ngā Maunga kawea e ngā ara
