Karakia tīmatanga

Question 1

Tukua taku wairua kia rere ki ngā taumata
Hei ārahi i aku mahi me taku whai i te reo Māori
Kia mau, kia ita
Kia kore ai e ngaro
Kia pupuri
Kia whakamaua
Kia tina
TINA!
Haumi e
Hui e
Tāiki e!

Answer 1

Let my spirit ascend to the highest summits
As a guide for all that I do and my pursuit of the
Māori language
So that it may be retained forever more
And never lost
So that it is preserved and maintained
So that it is secure
Let us progress in our purpose

Question 2

Tuia i runga
Tuia i raro
Tuia i roto
Tuia i waho
Tuia te here tangata
Ka rongo te pō
Ka rongo te ao
Tūturu whakamaua kia tīna, tīna,
Haumi ē, hui ē, tāiki ē!
