Whakarongo ake māua
Ki te tangi a te manu nei

Message from our Chief Judge and Pae Matua.
Whakarongo ake māua
Ki te tangi a te manu nei
a te tui
Tūī, tūī, tūī tuia
Tuia i runga
Tuia i raro
Tuia i waho
Tuia i roto
Tuia i te here tangata
Ka rongo te pō
Ka rongo te ao
Tuia i te muka tangata
I takea mai i Hawaiki nui
I Hawaiki roa
I Hawaiki pāmamao
Te hono a wairua
Ka puta mai ki te whai ao
Ki te ao mārama
Tihei mauri ora
Ki ngā mate huhua o te wā kei tēnā marae kei tēnā marae
Ka tangi tonu mātou
Haere atu ra koutou ki te pō
Ki te rārangi mātua o ngā tūpuna
Ki reira moe ai
Āpiti hono tātai hono rātou te hunga mate ki a rātou
Āpiti hono tātai hono tātou te hunga ora kia tātou
Otirā tēnā koutou katoa
Whakatau mai rā e ngā tō pito whānui o te motu ki te pae o Te Kooti Whenua Māori
Nau mai e ngā hua i puta mai ai i te ao kikokiko
Haere mai koutou
Kuhu mai e te iti e te rahi kia mōhio kia mārama
Tū mai rā e ngā rangatira o te whenua hei rangatira
Nō reira, tū atu i raro i te mana o te whenua
Hei oranga mo ngāi tātou te tangata
Piki mai rā koutou ki te tomokanga whare o Pātaka Whenua
He pātaka mōhiohio
He pātaka tiaki kōrero
He pātaka honohono e te tangata ki te kooti
Haere mai, nau mai, kuhu mai ki Pātaka Whenua
