Okay I need help translating some of the lyrics to one of Jimmy Buffett's songs. It is probably my favorite song but I would really like to know what part of the lyrics mean. I am not sure what language they are so I am hoping someone can help me. I have tried looking it up on the internet but have had no luck. The song is "One Paticular Harbour" by Jimmy Buffett.
Here are the lyrics I need translated:
IA ORA TE NATURA
E MEA AROFA TEIE AO NEI
IA ORA TE NATURA
E MEA AROFA TEIE AO NEI
UA PAU TE MAITAI NO TE FENUA
RE ZAI NOA RA TE ORA O TE MITIE

Ohmigosh, thank you, thank you for starting this discussion. I am so glad to know what it means.
One Particular Harbor is definitely one of my favorite songs that he sings. It is great!
