Tūwhera ki a Ranginui
Tāmaua ki a Papatūānuku
Tauawhia te tipua e whakaata mai nei
Hokia te maunga tapu, whakatau ai
Honoa te ira tangata, te ira Atua
Huakina te whatumanawa

Kohia te ngao o Rangi, o Papa ki te kōpū
Hei muramura toha ki te ao
Kia turuturu mai te tōmairangi whakapuiaki 
Kia tupu, kia whanake me he rākau
He toka te pouwhenua, He whatu te titirangi

Whakahoki ngao ki te whenua
Tūwhera ki te rangi,
Tāmaua ki te papa
Tōia mai te ngao ki te morenga o te poho
Whuia ki te wheiao
Tauawhia te tipua e whakaata mai nei
Hokia te maunga tapu, whakatau ai
Hokia te maunga tapu, whakatau ai
