Translation
The Breath of Life!
As the tītī bird cries, as the kākā bird cries, I also cry!
First and foremost greetings to the Lord above
The king of all Kings
The Lord of all Lords
The beginning and the ending of all things
Forever more!
Tihei Mauri Ora!
Ka tangi te tītī, ka tangi te kākā, ka tangi hoki ahau!
Ko te mea tuatahi, ngā mihi ki te Atua i runga rawa
Te Kingi o ngā Kingi
Te Atua o ngā Atua
Ko ia te tīmatanga me te whakamutunga o ngā mea katoa
Āke tonu atu!
Ko Tongariro taku maunga
Ko Taupo taku moana
Ko Rereao taku wharetipuna
Ko Korohe taku marae
Ko Ngāti Hine taku hapū
Ko Tūwharetoa taku iwi
Ko Te Arawa taku waka
Ko Te Heuheu te tangata
Ko Manalino taku īngoa
Nau mai, haere mai ki tēnei ipurangi Māori!
No reira te whanau
Tena koutou tena koutou
Tena koutou katoa
