Tiare, oe no te tama maho'i e (vocals only)
Tiare, oe no Tahiti
Tiare, hope roa ite nehenehe
no to'oe no'ano'a
Te fa'a no'ano'a ite mau purotu
No tama to'oe poe here nei
I te mau mahana atoa
Ti..a...re
Tiare, oe no te tama maho'i e
Tiare, oe no te tama maho'i e
Translation:
The Tiare of the native people (Intro)
Tiare, flower of Tahiti
Tiare, you're ultimately beautiful
(your) beautiful fragrance
(Your beautiful fragrance) is so womanly
The beloved flower worm above the ear
All days, always
The tiare of the Polynesian (native) people
The Tiare of the native people

In the song Tiare oe no Tahiti, shouldn't the words for the Tahitian people be "maohi e" not "maho'i e"?
Please let me know
