E Ihowā Atua, O ngā iwi mātou rā, Āta whakarangona, Me aroha noa, Kia hua ko te pai, Kia tau tō atawhai, Manaakitia mai, Aotearoa.

God of Nations at thy feet, In the bonds of love we meet, Hear our voices we entreat, God defend our free land, Guard Pacific's triple star, From the shafts of strife and war, Make her praises heard afar, God defend New Zealand.
