Tū mai te tapu, te kanohi matakuikui a Hine Kōanga, te whakaoho, te puāwaitanga o te rau aroha ki a tātou ōku hiri nui, ōku hiri rahi, tātou rā ngā manu koekoeā,kua tuituia te raupuhipuhi ki te ihu o tēnei waka o Aoraki me ōna pūkanakana mai rā ki a tātou.

Ka tika hoki ka rere āwhiowhio te hahae, te tau o te ate, ka tuku te rau rangatira ki ngā waipuke o te tangata,
koutou rā ngā tini kahurangi kua riro ki te Pō, ki te Poho o Paerau, haere, rere atu, e oki
Hoki mai rā ki a tātou, ki pare o te Rā ka tū, tēnā anō tātou.

Nei rā te mihi, te koakoa a Te Pā Tuna ki a koutou, ka whakapiripiri ai tātou ki te whakanuia, whakarangatira te karanga o te iwi whānui, e noho ana nei kei raro te korowai ‘Hui-ā-Iwi’
Heoi i runga te taumarireriretanga o te Ao Hurihuri nei

Tau te mauri.
