Te Ariki Hei Au Koe Noho Ai
| Te Ariki Hei Au Koe Noho Ai (1860) , translated by Edward Marsh Williams (1818–1909) |
Te Ariki, hei au koe noho ai,
He ponga hoki tenel no te ra
Tupono noa nga mate o te ao,
Kia tata mai; hei a au Koe noho ai.
Nga ra e ora ai te tangata,
Ano he tai e timu atu nei;
E Koe, te take o te oranga
Kia tata mai; hei a au koe noho ai.
Mau ano ra, ka tino pono ai
He whainga tupu
ki te hoa whawhai.
Mau ano au u ata arahi:
Kia tata mai; hei a au koe noho ai.
E kore au oe ohooho noa
I anei he e whakararu nei
E karo au nga whakawal katoa;
E toa ahau; ka taia mai ia Koe.
