Purea nei

Purea nei e te hau

Horoia e te ua

Whitiwhitia e te ra

Mahea ake ngā pōraruraru

Makere ana ngā here.


E rere wairua, e rere

Ki ngā ao o te rangi

Whitiwhitia e te rā

Mahea ake ngā pōraruraru

Makere ana ngā here,

Makere ana ngā here.

Cleansed by the wind

washed by the rain

and warmed by the sun,

all troubles are cleared away

and all restraints got rid of.

Fly O free spirit, fly

to the clouds in the heavens,

warmed by the sun,

with all troubles cleared away

all restraints got rid of,

all restrictions cast aside.
