MIHI

Noho mai rā Aotearoa,
moana waipiata,
maunga kākāriki.
Mai i ngā wai kaukau o ngā tūpuna,
ki ngā puke kawe i ngā reo o te tini,
i puta ai te kī mōu.
Tū ana he maunga,
takoto ana he raorao,
heke ana he awaawa.
Ko ō wahapū te ataahua,
ō tāhuna te mahora,
te taiao e whītiki nei i a koe he taonga tuku iho.

Aotearoa
who bestrides shimmering seas,
and verdant mountains.
From the bathing waters of our forebears,
and hills that echo with voices
that acclaim.
Your mountains stand lofty,
your valleys spread from them
and your streams run freely.
Your harbours are majestic,
your beaches widespread,
the environment that surrounds you is a legacy.
