E te atua
Homai ki a mātou
Tōu māramatanga
Tōu rangimārie
Tōu kaha me tōu aroha
Mō tēnei rā
Āmine
Translation:
Oh lord
give to us
your knowledge
your calmness
your strength and love
on this day
Amen
Whakataka te hau....... ki te uru
Whakataka te hau....... ki te tonga
Kia mākinakina ki uta
Kia mātaratara ki tai
E hī ake ana ...te atakura
He tio,
He huka,
He hauhu
Tiheī .....Mauri Ora! (x2 for waiata)
Translation:
Cease the winds from the West
Cease the winds from the South
Let the breezes blow over the land
Let the re-tipped dawn come
With a sharpened air
A touch of frost, a promise of
A glorious day
E Te Atua
Manaakitia matou
Arahina matou i a matou mahi
i tenei ra
i runga i tou ingoa tapu
ake, ake ake
Āmine
Translation:
oh god
bless us together
help us through our work
this day
on your holy name
forever and ever
amen
Kia tau ki a tatou katoa
Te atawhi o to tatou ariki a ihu karati
Me te aroha o te atua,
me te whiwhinga tahitanga
ki te Wairua tapu
Ake,
Ake Ake
Amine
