Maori History

He Mihi

Ka ū anō ngā tai o Rehu o Tiu,

e Rongo tūria ki te matahau

Tū te winiwini, tū te wanawana

Tihei wā mauri ora

Ko te tīmatanga o te whakāro nui

ko te wehi ki tō tātou Atua,

ko ia hoki te tīmatatanga me te whakamutunga o ngā mea katoa

He whakahonore nei i te ingoa o tō tātou Kīngi a Tūheitia

e noho ake nei i runga i te ahurewa tapu o ōna mātua, me ōna tūpuna

Ka huri a tātou mihi ki ngā tini mate kua hinga,

kua wehe atu nei ki tua o te ārai, ki te wāhi ngaro

Ki a ratou haere, haere, haere

ēngari ki a tātou ki ngā kanohi ora e tau nei,

Tēna koutou, tēna koutou, tēna koutou katoa

Nau mai, haere mai ki Te Pane o Mataoho
