Toitū te whenua, whatungarongaro te tangata
Waihoki, e te purapura tuawhiti kua riro,
Kei te mumu ahurea tuakiri, e Piri,
kua tāwhaitia te paenga taumata okiokinga.
Mahue mai te nuipuku e tangi apakura nei
Kei te ihuoneone o te reo me ōna tikanga.
E te pia pono nō te kawa o Tāne Rore
Kua ngū, kua moe tāu wahaika
