Whakataka te hau ki te uru              Cease oh winds of the west and the south

Kia mākinakina ki uta                       over the land and the sea

Kia mātaratara ki tai                          Let the red-tipped dawn come

E hī ake ana te atakura                     with a sharpened edge

He tio, he huka, he hauhū                a touch of frost

Tihei Mauri Ora!                                A promise of a glorious day!
