Kupu Waiata
Ka tū ahau e
Ki te tihi o Parihaka
Ko te kāinga tēnei ā Te Winiwini tairi te ike ike o Manaia ki te rāwhiti
Ka huri tāku aro ki te hauāuru ki tuawhenua
ko Parikiore
ko Pukemiro
ko Hurupaki
ko Onoke
Tirohia tirohia ki te Rāwhitiroa
ko Kaihou ko Ngārara i tunua e i
Tatarawa ko matarau te aratapu ko ngā maunga whakaruruhau a Te Kahu o Torongare
kei waenga kei atu ko Te Paea
Ko tāku kaha
Ko tāku mana
Ko tāku mauri
Tihei mauri ora e
He mihi mahana ki te uri o Ngāti Kahu o Torongare.
Ko Ngarara i tunua te marae.
