E Tū Tautoko Noa

Nga Kupu & Ngoi Pēwhairangi

E tū tautoko noa
Ngā tūmanako e
A te ngākau māhaki
E hotu ake nei

Kua honokia nei e
Tātou i tēnei rā
I runga i te aroha
Te rangimārie

[Chorus]
Karanga mai, mihi mai
Ki a mātou katoa e
Te whānau kua eke nei
Te reo karanga e

Kua ngaro ngā mōrehu
Tū mokemoke noa
Ngā waihotanga rā e
A rātou katoa

[Repeat chorus twice]

Te whānau kua eke nei
Te reo karanga e
Te reo karanga e

English translation
The hopes of this peaceful heart
Remain longingly in support
We are all joined together this day
In love and peace
[Chorus]
Call us, welcome us all
The family that has come onto the marae
In response to the call of welcome
The survivors have all gone
and we they have left behind
stand lonely
[Repeat chorus twice]
The family that has come onto the marae
In response to the call of welcome
In response to the call of welcome
