Tamarau nō runga i te rangi heke iho ki raro ki te whakamarimari
Tē tatari ai ki te hurahanga o te tāpora o Rongo-u-eroa
Taku kuia e! Taku kuia e!
Te Ara o taku tupuna o tohia ai au
Ko Te Ātiawa nō runga i te rangi
Te toki tē tangatanga i te rā
Taringa mango, ko to kete ngē
Ue ha! Ue ha!
Taketake mai ngā hau o whenua ngaro, o waitukukiri
Mai i te karamatamatatanga o Pukeatua ki Korokoro, rere ki ngā ūranga, ki te oneroa i haukawakawa.
