Our Waiata
Tēnei ahau,
he uri nō ngā kāwai ariki,
I rangahaua i te pō uriuri, i te pō tangotango,
Ka taka i te pae o Huaki-pōuri,
Kia puta mai ai ki te whaiao, ki te ao mārama e i!
Hai kura nui, hai kura roa, hai kura kāmehameha, Poipoia mai ahau,
whakahokia mai taku reo taketake ki taku arero,
Kia tū rangatira ai au i te ao hurihuri nei!
Tū mai rā,
Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Puāwaitanga o Te Pito Mata!
Te whare tāwharau i te reo Māori e!
Āpāia! Hei hā!

Here I stand,
a descendant of noble lineage
That was searched for in the depths of darkness I traversed the channel of life
That breaks the perpetual dark,
And ventured forth into the world of light!
The sacred and precious treasure that is life,
Nurture me,
return my native language to my tongue,
So that I may stand tall in this ever changing world.
Stand tall,
Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Puāwaitanga o Te Pito Mata,
Housing the sacred language of my ancestors!
Behold!
Kia whanake
te kura nui!
Kia ūkaipō
Kia Kounga
Kia tapatahi
Kia Pono
Kia Manawanui
