  • Kei te kōwhatu turua e Murumāra.
    E moe i te moenga roa o Hine Huhuritai
    Tomokanga ki te pae-kawau o te pitoururangi he paenga purapura tuawhiti
     
    Nāhau anō tō huanui ake i pōkai
    Kia toi tū te reo taketake
    Kia reo Māori a nuipuku rāua ko makiu
    Takoto pū i te mōhio, whiua reretia ana ō whakaaweawe ki tēnā moka ki tēnā awaawa ki tēnā kōtihitihi
     
    Nā reira, hoki atu rā e te rangatira
    Whakarerea iho rā nga ahuatanga o tō mate
    Hakoa he mate roa, kua mate ururoa
    Mutunga iho, he koiora kura he koiora matapopore
