A three panel illustration, tree trunks, flame-like shapes, and leaves

Puarengia ō mata

ki te ao

tūroa

I takea mai koe i 

tua o

Tāwauwau


E oho mai!

E hua mai!

O kura e huna ana 

i tō whatumanawa

Ka ihiihi

Ka wehiwehi

Ka wana, me he awa e tere ana i te


Puna ora

Huraina ngā kura 

He hautupua

Huraina ō kura

Puna ora


Tō umu, tīrama

Tiaho, mārama

Kia mau, kia ū ki te pai

Kia mau, kia ū ki tō ira atua


E oho mai!

E hua mai

O kura kei roto tonu i tō whatumanawa

Ka ihiihi

Ka wehiwehi

Ka wana me he awa e tere ana i te


Puna ora

Huraina ngā kura 

He hautupua

Huraina ō kura

Puna ora


He moko he puna 

He wai ka pū i te mātāpuna

Hei puna ora hou

Maiea ngā kura, ngā hua, ki tua! X 2

O Tāwauwau


 



Puna Ora - a translation

Open your eyes

To the living world

You who have come from

Beyond 


Awaken!

Come forth!

The hidden power 

Within

It’s exhilarating

It’s awesome

It rises like a river spilling out from


The spring of life

Unveil that power

A being fierce and full

Unveil that power

Spring of life


Let your light shine

Let it give light

Hold on to what is good

Hold on to your divine heritage


Awaken!

Reveal yourself!

The hidden power 

Within

It’s exhilarating

It’s awesome

It rises like a river spilling out from


A descendant is a spring 

Coming forth from the spring of life

A new spring, a new life

Let the power rise and break forth
