God Defend New Zealand INSTRUMENTAL ONLY.wav

E ihowa atua,

O nga iwi matou ra

Ata whakarangona

Me aroha noa

Kia hua ko te pai

Kia tau to atawhai

Manaakitia mai

Aotearoa





God of nations! At thy feet

In the bonds of love we meet,

Hear our voices, we entreat,

God defend our free land.

Guard pacific's triple star,

From the shafts of strife and war,

Make her praises heard afar,

God defend new zealand.

Karanga kupu 

Tauawhi mai ra nga tipuna o Aotearoa 

Kia piri kia tata mai ra ki taku taha e

Nau Mai Haere Mai

Hoki mai ra eeeee

Haka kupu 

E te rangatahi e ngunguru nei,


I au au auē hā


Ngā tamariki hī, ngā tamariki hī, 


Āki akina hī, hikitia hī,


Au! au! auē! hā!


Ngā tamariki hī, ngā tamariki hī


Āki akina hī, hikitia hī,


Ko te mana o te iwi e ngunguru nei,


I au! Au! Aue! hā!


Hī !
