He Waiata Mārena mō te Kīngi
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He Hohanimi mā ngā tama a Koraha. He Makiri, he waiata aroha.
1E pupuke ake ana te mea pai i roto i tōku ngākau;ka kōrerotia e ahau āku i tito ai mō te kīngi;he pene tōku arero nā te kaituhituhi hohoro.2Engari koe he ātaahua i ngā tama a te tangata;kua ringihia ōu ngutu ki te āhuareka;nā reira i manaakitia ai koe e te Atua ake ake.3Whītikiria tāu hoari ki tōu hūwhā, e te Nui Rawa,tōu korōria me tōu hōnore.4Aratakina hoki tōu hōiho i runga i tōu hōnore, i te kaha,hei mea hoki mō te pono, mō te māhaki, mō te tika,ā, mā tōu matau koe e whakaako ki ngā mea whakamataku.5He koi āu pere; ka hinga ngā iwi ki raro i a koe;kei roto rātou i te ngākau o ngā hoariri o te kīngi.6He pūmau, e te Atua, tōu torōna ake ake;he hēpeta tika te hēpeta o tōu kīngitanga.7Kua aroha koe ki te tika, kua kino ki te hara;nā reira, nui atu i tō ōu hoa te whakawahinga a te Atua,a tōu Atua i a koe ki te hinu o te hari.8Ko tōu kākahu katoa he kakara maira, he aroe, he kahia.Ko ngā mea aho, whakatangitangi o ngā whare reināna koe i whakaahuareka.9Kei roto i āu wāhine hōnore ngā tamāhine kīngi;kei tōu matau te kuīni e tū ana, nō Ōpira te kōura.10Whakarongo, e kō, titiro, tahuri iho tōu taringa;ā, kia wareware koe ki tōu iwi, ki te whare anō o tōu pāpā.11Pēnei ka matenuitia e te kīngi tōu ātaahua;ko ia hoki tōu Ariki; ā, me koropiko ki a ia.12Ko reira anō te tamāhine o Tāira me te ohaoha;ka whai anō ngā tāngata taonga o te iwi kia manakohia e koe.13Kei roto te tamāhine a te kīngi, he korōria kau,he mea whakairo ki te kōura tōna kākahu.14He mea whakapaipai ki te ngira tōna kākahu e kawea ai ia ki te kīngi;ka ārahina ki a koe ngā wāhina,ōna takahoa e whai ana i a ia.15He hari, he koa ina kawea mai rātou;ka tomo ki te whare o te kīngi.16Ko āu tamariki hei whakakapi mō ōu mātua;ka meinga anō rātou e koe hei kāwana mō te whenua katoa.17Ka meinga e ahau tōu ingoa kia maharatia e ngā whakatupuranga katoa;e whakamoemititia ai koe e ngā iwi ā ake ake.
