Toia Tainui!
Tapotu ki te moana,
Ma wai e to?
Ma te whakarongo ake.

He tara wainuku, He tara wairangi,

Ka tau taua i te wai,

Kia matakitakina taua
E te tini o te tangata.

O te hika o Maruanuku,

E patua ana mai

Na runga ana mai o ihi-ihi.

Ka to ki whea?
Ka to ki Maungatorohi e!
Katahi ka oho te iwi:
‘Torohi e! torohi e! torohi e!’

E te kōmuri hau;

Na runga mai o Waihi,
