Hiwa-i-te-Rangi
hiwa, hiwa, hiwa, hiwa
I wanna send my wishes up to hiwa-I-te-rangi
She is bright she is shiny
She a star of matariki
Plant me in the ground facing hiwa-I-te-rangi
Cite the prayers giving thanks
She all-knowing matariki
homai he tauira
homai he tau ranea
homai everywhere I go show me I'm not on my own
homai he tau rea
homai he tau houkura
homai in my heart of hope are seeds of love for everyone
ko hiwa
ko hiwa nui
ko hiwa
ko hiwa roa
ko hiwa pūkenga
ko hiwa wānanga
takataka te kāhui o te rangi
koia pou tō putanga
ki te whei ao
ki te ao mārama (mārama)
The first star that I see tonight is hiwa-I-te-rangi
With all my heart
My wish providing plenty for my iwi
Dor bounty and harmony I ask hiwa-I-te-rangi
She is light she is glowing
She almighty matariki
homai he tauira
homai he tau ranea
homai everywhere I go show me I'm not on my own
homai he tau rea
homai he tau houkura
homai in my heart of hope are seeds of love for everyone
