Waikato Taniwharau

Ta ringa whakarongo, kiamo, wai wai takahia
Kaea- Whakarongo, korero ko wai ra tatou e tu atu nei
Katoa- Tainui, Waikato Taniwharau
Kaea- Ia haha
Katoa- Kua tukuna ma ii oku tupuna

Me te pukenga

Kit e ako it e kupu

E torona atu kit e ao nei

Kaea- Kii atu
Katoa- Toku reo, toku ohooho
Kaea- Kii atu
Katoa- Toku reo, toku mapihi maurea
Kaea- Kii atu
Katoa- Toku reo, toku whakakai marihi
Kaea- No whea, no whea
Katoa- No nga tupuna

No nga atua

No te whenua e takoto nei

Tainui te iwi

Tainui te waka

Taupiri te maunga

Waikato te awa

Kaea- He piko he taniwha
Katoa- He piko he taniwha

I au au aue ha HI!
