He honore


He hōnore, he korōria1
Maungārongo ki te whenua
Whakaaro
2 pai e
Ki ngā tangata katoa
Ake ake, ake ake
Āmine

Te Atua, te piringa,
Toku oranga
Honour, glory and
peace to the land
May good thoughts come
to all men
for ever and ever, for ever and ever.
Amen.
The Lord is the refuge
and my life.


Karakia

Kia hora te marino,
Kia whakapapa pounamu te moana,
Kia tere kārohirohi i mua i tou huarahi.

May calm be spread around you,
May the sea glisten like greenstone
And the shimmer of summer dance across your path.

Turongo


Ka moe a Turongo ia Mahina-a-
rangi
Ka moe a Turongo ia Mahina-a-
rangi
Ka moe a Turongo ia Mahina-a-rangi
Ka puta ki waho ko Raukawa e

Turongo, Mahinaarangi
Ko nga mātua o to tatou tipuna
Na to raua moetanga
Ka puta mai ra o Raukawa

I whanau, I whanau,
A ia, a ia
Ki nga waiwera ki Okoroire uuuu...
Na te kakara, tona ingoa
Ko Raukawa, Aue.

Turongo married Mahina-a-rangi

Turongo married Mahina-a-rangi

Turongo married Mahina-a-rangi

Who brought forth Raukawa

Turongo, Mahinaarangi
the parents of our ancestor.
From their marriage
came forth Raukawa.

Born, born,
he was, he was
near the hot springs at Okoroire
Due to the scent, he was named Raukawa.

Hei konei ra

Whakawatea
Hei Konei Ra Kawakawa


Hei konei ra Kawakawa     
ka hoki nei i a au   
ki te hau kainga
Ki te whare korero   
A tukutuku hekeheke  
E o taku Kauwhatatanga


Oku kupu maioha  
Ki a koutou te matariki
Ma te reo e hoe i te waka
Te waka o kapa haka


No te hiahia ki te haka   
Kua ea  kua reka  
A wairua,  a waiata
Ko ta te whakaaro nui
Ko te whakakotahi  
Ki a tini e
Kia tini mai tawhiti mai i tata


Kia hiki nuku,  kia hiki rangi ki te whare ka riro
Ko te aroha hei hoa
No reira kia piki te ora ko te iwi pouri


Ko te hiahia ki te haka
Kua ea kua reka,  a wairua a waiata
Ko ta te whakaaro nui
Ko te whakakotahi
kia tini e
Kia tini mai tawhiti mai i tata x2
Kia tini mai tawhiti mai i tata
