Kē nonoa atu mātou kia koe, May we bind ourselves to you, e te Atua Manamana, O Almighty God, Kē yā, kē awukele mātou tākatoa, That we may all be holy and dedicated, Kē miō te kele wenua ki lunga atu lā. That we may reach the world above. Mō, e Te Ulu o Te Watu, kia ola, O People of Pukapuka, we greet you, Toku yana, toku mina, kia ola, You my beloved, my desire, may you prosper, Mō, e Pukapuka ē, Pukapuka nui, Isn’t that so, great land of Pukapuka: “Kaiokiokio, yūyū mata langi, "Lift up, wet against the face of the sky Tipa, tipa taiale, uwi!" Sway from side to side, throw down!" Kaiokiokio, yūyū mata langi, Tipa, tipa taiale.
Kē manatu atu ki toku wenua When I think of my home land, E mamao te maile, Many long miles away, Matua ē, tama ē, ka wea au ia koe? Parent, child, what shall I say to you? Wano lā, wano, wano nō ai koe. Go, go, go and stay there happily.
