Karakia timatanga

Karakia timatanga

Kia tau ngā manaakitanga

May the supports

A te mea ngaro

Of what has come before us

Ki runga ki tēnā, ki tēnā o tātou

Be upon each of us all

Kia mahea te hua mākihikihi

May our endeavours bear fruit

Kia toi te kupu

Let us all uphold our words

Toi te mana

Our mana

Toi te aroha

Our love

Toi te reo Māori

And our language

Kia tūturu, kia whakamaua, kia tīnā! Tīnā!

Be firm, be fixed, be steadfast! We're steadfast!

Haumi e, hui e! Tāiki e!

Come together! Let's advance together!
