Kua tipu rā hei oranga mō te iwi Māori (mō) ngā mokopuna tamariki
Pono ki te kaupapa, puna ko te reo
Kei aku kākā kura i whāngai i te waiū o te kupu kōrero
Pīpī, pīrere, purapura e, kōkiri kōkako e
Ngā pōhoi toroa o te kaupapa
Tuku mana, tuku ora, tuku iho e

Kei te ako au, kei te ako au
Kei te ako au ki te Kōhanga Reo!
Papaki mai ō matimati,
Papaki mai ō matimati,
Waewae whiua ki te taha, waewae whiua ki te taha
Hei hā, hei hā pakipaki !
He waka patu ahi au, ko Hiko taku ingoa
Kāore au e patu ahi, auē te aroha
Kia rahi ake au ka patu ahi e
Kei te mura rā te tāone
Karanga te waka, karanga te waka
Karanga te waka, Hiko! Wīu, wīu, wīu !
Motokā iti rawa e, mā wai e taraiwa e?
