MY MIHI

My Mihi

Ka tangi te titi  
Ka tangi te kaka
Ka tangi ko ahau 
Tihei Mauri Ora!

Ko te wehi ki te Atua 
Me whakakororia tona ingoa 
I nga wa katoa.

E nga waewae tapu
E nga mana 
E nga reo 
E nga waka

Tena Koutou i o tatou tini mate 
Haere, haere, haere.

Te hunga mate ki te hunga mate 
Te hunga ora ki te hunga ora

E nga Manuhiri
Nau mai, haere mai, haere mai

Tena koutou ki a koutou 
kua tae mai nei 
ki te tautoko te kaupapa
o tenei wa.

E nga waewae tapu 
E nga mana 
E nga reo 
E nga waka

E tika ana te korero 
i o tatou tupuna

Waiho i te toipoto 
Kaua i te toiroa

Ko Brandon taku ingoa
Ko Ngati Porou te iwi
Ko Ngapuhi te hapu 
Ko te waitemata te awa
Ko rangitoto te maunga
Ko Rosmini te marae
Ko Christine taku mama
Ko Anthony taku papa

No reira 
Tena koutou tena koutou tena koutou katoa
