Tera te karanga i te rangi
Te manu tuia, tui tuia
Tuia i runga, tuia i raro
Tuia i roto, tuia i raro
Tuia te here tangata
Ka rongo to po, ka rongo to ao
Haumi e hui e, taiki e
Welcome to our marae (nau mai, haere mai)
Its our Turangawaewae (nau mai, haere mai)
Its the place where I'm from
The place I belong
The place where my ancestors roam
Ain't nothing like a powhiri on the marae when you arrive to meet up with another tribe the sun shining in your eyes shooing off the flies waiting for the first speaker on the Paepae Whaikorero straight from the mohio vital life lessons for tama and kotiro but one at a time first kaumatua speak their minds then the manuhiri will give their reply no matter what thee occasion whether somebodies passed on, a wedding or they're just agingMarae is the staging this is as formal as it gets, show aroha and respect for each other
Don't forget a waiata after your speech brother that's sweet coz we all know a bit of kapa haka tribal roots run deeper then you can manage or even imagine tapu as but can be damaged (yeah!)
You descend directly from you ancestors, they're in your blood, they're in your bones mountains will remain when you travel to a distant land your gonna take a piece of home let it ressonate deep in your soul, oh....
Welcome to our marae (nau mai, haere mai)
Its our Turangawaewae (nau mai, haere mai)
Its the place where I'm from
The place I belong
The place where my ancestors roam
No matter if your've come from near or far we all know the kaupapa, where your roots are drawn to your whakapapa you'll never forefill a future without your past without the wairua of your tupuna up in the urupā hongi and kihi nau mai haere mai to the whanau behind the scenes mahi up in the whare kai it comes as no surprise maori are multi-talented keeping a balance between our arts ,carvers and battlers this aint a place of staunch walks and faces full with arrogance amatuers are just a straight up embarrasment the tekoteko says it all, to the average witness wharenui portraits of real savages
Blood of our ancestors runs deep within tribal marriges and kohanga reo to teach the kids when foundations are concrete thats where my speech begins maori stand again, this time we fight for keeps and win (yeah!)
You decend directly from you ancestors, they're in your blood, they're in your bones mountains will remain when you travel to a distant land your gonna take a piece of home let it ressonate deep in your soul, oh....
Welcome to our marae (nau mai, haere mai)

The place I belong
The place where my ancestors roam
(I te taha toku matua tenei te pepeha)
Tōkū marae rāuā ko maunga Kahuranaki ki Heretaunga
Ko Ngāti Kahungunu te iwi
Ko Takitimu tōkū waka
Ko Ngaruroro te awa
Ko Tamatea Arikinui rāuā ko Te Hapuku te tangata
Ko Poukawa te waiu
Ko Ngai Te Rangikoianake te hapū
Ko Ngati Te Whatuiapiti te rangatira
Ko Tipene Harmer tōkū ingoa
Tēnā koutou
Tēnā koutou
Tēnā koutou katoa
Tihei mauri ora!!!
