Takina te kawa, ko te kawa nui, ko te kawa roa, ko te kawa tiketike ko te kawa tapu ko te kawa tuatahi, ko te kawa tuangahuru, ko te kawa tapu, ko te kawa ki Io Matua Kore kia ū ki te pai, kia mau ki te tika, kia ita ki te pono, Tihewa Mauriora.
Ngenge pai ahau mai i taku wīkene, me kī he pī mahi tāku i runga i taku whenua, haere tonu ana ngā mahi whakapaipai i te whenua e tū nei tō mātou whare. I te Rāhoroi, i hiki pou raima ahau mai i tētahi pātiki ki te tauranga waka o tō mātou whare hei whakatū waka, toru tekau pea nga pou raima, a, i pai taku moe i te Rahoroi. I taua po raka i rapu maua i etahi tupu harakeke.
I te Rātapu i tapahi pātītī ahau i taku mīhini, i te pakanga ahau ki te kaikuia, aue te hōhā o taua pūrari momo karahe! I tapahia i raro i taku taiapa hiko. I muri i tera he keri poka maua ko taku matua hei wāhi whakatō harakeke i mua tonu i tō mātou whare.
Koinā!
