Tane (Waikato, Waikato)

Ko te whakatauāki

Tane: Waikato!

Waikato te iwi

Tane: Waikato!

Waikato te awa

Tane: Waikato!

He piko he taniwha

Tane: Waikato

Tainui ra te waka

Nāhau ra te mana

Ko koe te mokopuna

Tihei Mauri Ora

Te Ariki, Te Ariki, Te Arikinui

 

(Te kupu a Te Whiti korikori e te iwi ki a ngāueue a tauiwi e) Tane: Ko te kupu

Pīoioi ana te piriti Waikato e

Kei taka koe e hine

He wahine tū tika e

Aue, ka rere ra

Aue aue ka rere ra

E te manu ki tona Tauranga e

 

Me te rangimārie

(Tane: Hi Aue!)

Me te rangimārie

(Katoa) Timatangia Te Puea

 

He pou whenua, he pou tangata heoi e te iwi e – Ka hoki)

(Katoa) Ka hoki matou e te iwi e, me te aroha

Ki kawhia whenua, ki kawhia tangata

Whaingaroa te moana

Pukepuke te huinga o te tapu

O kārewa

Kei waho ahau, ka hoki mai ki te tumu o Tainui

 

(He aha rā)

He aha rā, He mahi mo runga I

te marae e tū nei

E ko te hono ki te Kotahitanga

Ki te kingi Māori e tū nei

Tane: E tū nei, Hi!
