Tauparapara (Mataora) Karakia - Matariki

Tauparapara mō te mataora

He aha kei taku kanohi

He Manu Pekapeka

He Manu Rūrū

He Manu Kiwikiwi

He Manu Kaakaa

Kei taku kanohi

He tuu-a-nui, he tuu-a-papa

He Kuia, He Koroua e!

Te Whetū o Waipunarangi

Haramai te kōnehunehu

Haramai te hāuaua

Haramai te hūkerikeri

Haramai te ua tātā 

------------

Te Whetū o Ururangi

E tū Ururangi

Ko te whānau pupuhi

Tū te winiwini, tū te wanawana

Kia puta ko te ora o Tāwhiringi

Koia!
