Korerohia tenei inoi ka ite koe kei te noho takitahi koe ka rongo koe a Ihu i to taha
Mena ka noho mokemoke koe mena kei te tino tu-kore koe na te mea kaore he tangata i te taha e piri ana koe ki te manaaki ranei i a koe, kei kona tetahi inoi hei awhina i a koe ki te whakamarie i te Atua. Ngakau pono, i nga wa katoa e hiahia ana koe:
E te Ariki aroha, kia mahara tatou,
ka makariri ana te ao, ka pouri hoki,
a kaore maatau e mohio ki hea ka huri mo te whakamarie,
kei kona tonu tetahi waahi kanapa me te koa: te Whare Tapu.
I a tatou ka ngaro i te wairua,
ka mate ana te hunga katoa e aro nui ana ki a tatou.
rite puawai raumati, kaore he tangata e toe ana ki te aroha me te manaaki ki a tatou,
e muhumuhu ana ki o taatau wairua raru kei kona tetahi hoa kaore e mate,
te tangata e kore e rereke tona aroha: a Ihu i runga i te aata.
Ka ngatata ana te mamae, ka kuru i a tatou ki ta ratou kawenga.
ia maheahea tatou e rapu ai i te whakamarie?
kia puta mai o kupu aroha i roto i te tapenakara, kia kaha.
Haere mai ki ahau, koutou katoa e mauiui ana, e pikaunga ana, a maku koutou e whakaokioki.
