He hōnore, he korōria 

he maungārongo ki te whenua,

he whakaaro pai ki ngā tāngata katoa

E koro- Taranaki

pataka iringa korero

maunga toka tū

maunga ahuru mowai o te iwi

Ina ako tātau ki te mārama

ki te hua o te rerenga kāwanatanga,

ka mōhio tātau, kai te pakeke tātau.

Ko te aroha he huānga māia i roto i tēnā .

He aha te mea nui o te ao?

Kei aku rangatira e huihui nei

Rau rangatira mā, e Kui ma e koro ma e huihui nei,

tēnei aku mihi nui ki a koutou. Kia ora tātou katoa.

Nau mai hoki mai ki Te Whare Kawana.

Awarua ki te rangi, Awarua ki te whenua, Awarua tāngata.

Rau rangatira mā, e kui mā, e koro mā, e huihui nei,

tēnei aku mihi nui ki a koutou.

Nau mai hoki mai ki Te Whare Kawana o Tamaki Makaurau

Kia ora tātou katoa

Rau rangatira mā, tēnei aku mihi nui ki a koutou.

Ta Meihana Durie

Rere ana nga roimata o Hine

Kei aku nui

Kei aku rahi

Rau Rangatira ma

Tena koutou

Tena koutou

Tena tatou katoa

E te Kahurangi, Anne Salmond

Nōku te maringa

Ki te mihi, ki te whakanui

i a koe i tenei po,

Kei āku nui

Kei āku rahi

Koutou kua tatū mai

ki tēnei o nga wānanga

He wānanga whakapiki ora

He wananga whakapiki kaha

He wananga whakapumau

i nga āhuatanga o nga

mātua tipuna
