Kia kotahi mai ki te ao nei.
Kia kotahi mai ki te whenua nei
Kia kotahi mai ki te wai rere nei
Kia kotahi mai ki te hauora
Kia kotahi mai ki te waiata
Kia kotahi mai, nga iwi katoa
Be at one with this world
Be at one with this land
Flow as one with the water
Breathe as one with the wind
Be as one in song
Be as one together
