Te haerenga ki te marae
Kua tae mai te rōpū o Te Waipounamu ki Pōneke mā runga i te kaipuke. Whitu karaka i te ata te tāima.

Ko Hōne mā ēnei e kōrerorero nei.
Tēnā koe
Kei te pēhea koe?
Kei runga a Piri mā i te pahi.
E haere ana te pahi ki Te Wairoa
Kei te waiata ngā tāngata i runga i te pahi.
Ko Hōne te kai-rakuraku i te kītā.
Kore au e pai
Ki te piki wākena
Engari motokā
Ka piki atu au e.

Kua tatū mai te manuhiri o Pōneke me Te Waipounamu. Whā karaka i te ahiahi te tāima.
