whakaaria mai tō aroha
tiaho mai rā i te pō
kia kore rawa ahau e ngaro
e tū mokemoke noa
whakaaria mai tō aroha
anō he ua i runga i te tipu hou
maringitia iho tō wairua ki runga i ahau
pūnehunehu ki runga ki te ao katoa
kia tipu ai he puāwai hōnore mō te tangata
i tipu ake te pono i te whenua
ka titiro iho te tika i te rangi e
he hōnore, he korōria
he maungārongo ki te whenua e
he whakaaro pai ki ngā mea katoa
te rangimāriē me te rongopai
ka pupuritia mō ake tonu e
kua whiwhi rā tātau katoa ki te tāne mārena hou
hai oranga pūmau mō ake tonu e
anō he ua i runga i te tipu hou
maringitia iho tō wairua ki runga i ahau
pūnehunehu ki runga ki te ao katoa
kia tipu ai he puāwai hōnore mō te tangata
he puāwai hōnore mō te hunga rawakore
mō te pani mō te hunga kei te pōuri e
