God Defend New Zealand

MAORI -
1 E Ihoa Atua
o nga Iwi Matoura,
ata whakarongona;
me aroha noa.
Kia hua ko te pai;
kia tau to atawhai;
manaakitia mai
Aoteara.

ENGLISH -
1 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!
