Ngāti Tapu
He wāhanga o Ngāi Te Rangi

Ko Mauao te maunga tupuna
Rohe: Tauranga-moana
Waka: Mataatua
Maunga: Mauao
Moana: Te Awanui
Tohutoro matua: Rārangi Iwi-Hapū
E papaki tū ana ngā tai ki Mauao
I whakanukunukuhia i whakanekenekehia
I whiua reretia e Hoturoa a Wahinerua ki te wai
Ki tai wīwī ki tai wāwā, ki tai papaki onepū
Ki te whaiao, ki te ao marama
Tīhei, mauri ora!
