"I roto i te pō te māramatanga e whiti ana"
"Matariki i te pō"

Lyrics:

Matariki i te pō
Tihāngaia te pō
He tauira i te pō
I nā rā, e ara, Matariki e

Matariki i te pō
Tīaho mai i te pō
Te karere o te Ao
Haehae mai rā i te pō
E ōkiōki ana
Matariki ki te whenua

Matariki i te ao, Matariki i te ao
Te kanapu i te ao, Te Kanapu i te ao
Te kaiora o Hauhake, Kaiora o Hauhake
Karanga o Hōtokē, karanga o Hōtoke
E ataata ana
Matariki e arā

Uuuuu
Taku ihi wehi wana auē
Uuuuu

Tipuānuku, Tipuārangi, Waitā, Waitī,  Waipunārangi
Ko Ururangi, Ko Matariki, Ko Pōhutukawa, Ko Hiwa-i-te-Rangi e
Ngā whetū o te rangi ko Matariki

Matariki i te pō
Matariki i te ao
He hokinga mahara
Hei anga whakamua
He oranga wairua
Ko Matariki e ara

Bridge:
Chorus:

Auē ko Matariki auē Matariki e
Ko Matariki auē Matariki e
Ko Matariki auē  Matariki e
Ko Matariki auē ko Matariki auē Matariki e
Ngā whetū o te rangi ko Matariki
