Tū ake ai ahau ki te tihi o Hikurangi i te atapō
Tērā a Matariki e pīataata mai rā i te tāhapatū o te rangi
Nau mai e ngā hua!
Tērā a Waitai e papaki mai rā i te nuku o te whenua
Nau mai e ngā hua!
Tērā a Tamanuiterā me ōna hihi e maea ake rā
Nau mai e ngā hua!
Ka whiti te rā ki runga i a koe, ka whiti te rā ki runga i a tātou
Nau mai e te manu ariki whakatakapōkai o te ata hāpara.
