"Kia hora te marino, Kia whakapapa pounamu te moana

Hei huarahi mā tātou i te rangi nei, Aroha atu, Aroha mai, 

Tātou i a tātou katoa...hui e! Tāiki e!

May peace be widespread, may the sea be like greenstone, 

A pathway for us all this day

Let us show respect for each other, for one another,

Bind us...all...together!
