Ko taatou te Ara
Ka hiria taatou i ngaa tamariki rangatira
Te hiri o taa raatou whakapapa
Te manawa tina
Te manawa toka
o te aroha, o te tikanga
Hei mana o te ao
Te manawa kaukau ora o te tamaiti
We (the community) are the path
We envelope our children as rangatira
With the seal of their whakapapa
With resolute commitment
Of compassion and custom
As world influencers
Where the heart is immersed in the wellbeing of the child
