KUPU
E ngā tuākana o Te Nehenehenui
Me he kahu pītongatonga
I maru i a koe
Te tāhuna ā-tara e tau nei
Maniapoto nihowera
Tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou katoa

Nei rā te tuitui i ngā tātai whakapapa o Waikato-Maniapoto e

He aroha tāukiuki
He maimai aroha nā Ngaere
Ki te kuku o tōna manawa
E ko Heke-i-te-rangi e
Te puhi o Maniapoto e

Kia mau ki te kawau mārō
Whanake ake! Whanake ake!

Herea ngā whakapapa o Tainui
Whītiki ki anamata
Paiheretia ngā tātai ariki
Ko Waikato-Maniapoto

Tēnei te kawau e tiripou ana
Tapakō ana i runga i a Puke-i-āhua
Ko Te Kete-iwi e

E ruku i te ruku a te kawau
Ki a Waipā-here-ariki
Ki taku rongohua
Ko te rātā tapu o Heke-i-te-rangi ki Te Rore
Whākanakana ana taku tirohanga
Ki te hākari a Ngaere i te ara o Maniauruhau

Ki Manga-o-tama
Hao!
Ki Kaipārera

Ki Kāniwhaniwha
Hao!

Ki Tikirahi
Hao! Hao!
Haoa a Whakatakotoranga, a Te Wakapaku, a Pahīwai
Āhāhā

He kawau ka tuku ki te aro o Ngāti Rōrā e
Ki te kūititanga o ngā whakaaro
Ki te kūititanga o Tainui e
Kei aku huānga o Maniapoto
Nā koutou ko Te Mana-o-te-rangi

Ko wai rā, ko wai rā!
Ko te rāhui kawau a Ngaere e tau nei
Hao!
