Tu Hokianga
Piki ake au ki tōku taumata Hūnoke te maunga e whakaruruhau nei e
Titiro iho ki Niniua rāua ko Ārai te Uru ngā taniwha kaitiaki o te Wahapū
Tū Hokianga horahia te kura tapu te tatau pounamu puritia kia ū
Te aroha kia mau hei whakaruruhau kia ū ki te whakangūngū rākau
Ko te toka tēnā hei whirinakitanga pakipaki kau ana ngā tai o Hokianga
Ko te rere hukatai whakapapa pounamu haere te moana waewae puta te ārai
Ka titiro iho au ki te awa Hokianga whakapau karakia whakapou kōrero
Ki ngā tai tapu e tere atu nei ki te ripo whara nui kei waho o Māpuna
E mihi ana ki te iwi kua riro i te ripo moana ki tawhiti oti atu
Kei te whei ao ki te ao marama
Ēnei ngā kōrero o ngā mātua tūpuna e
