These karakia are used to focus ourselves at the beginning of the day.
Tuia ki runga
Tuia ki raro
Tuia ki waho
Tuia ki roto
Tuia ki te here tangata
Ka rongo te po
Ka rongo te ao
Haumi e, Hui e,
Taiki e!
Unite above
Unite below
Unite without
Unite within
United as one
Listen to the night
Listen to the world
Now we can come together as one!
He whakawhetai ana mo tēnei rā
He whakamaumahara ki ngā taonga tuku iho
Ngā maunga, ngā awa, ngā moana
Ngā rakau, ngā manu
Hei tiritiri mo tātou katoa
O tātou wairua te hanga tangata kotahi
Kia mahi tahi ai
Mo te ao hou tino pai
We give thanks for this day
We remember the treasures that have been passed on
The mountains, the rivers, the seas,
The trees, the birds
Are there for us all to share
Our aim should be to build upon friendships
Working together
For a better world
Whakataka te hau ki te uru
Whakataka te hau ki te tonga
Kia mākinakina ki uta
Kia mātaratara ki tai
E hī ake ana te atakura
He tio, he huka, he hau hū
Tīhei mauri ora!
Cease the winds from the west
Cease the winds from the south
Let the breeze blow over the land
Let the breeze blow over the ocean
Let the red-tipped dawn come with a sharpened air
A touch of frost, a promise of a glorious day
These karakia are used to bless our food before eating.
Whakapaingia ngā hua
ō Papa, ō Rongo, ō Haumie
Hei oranga i o mātou tinana
Hei whangaia hoki i ō mātou wairua
Haumi ē hui ē taiki ē
E tō mātou Matua
Homai tō aroha
Whakapaingia ēnei kai
Hui ē taiki ē
This is our school closing karakia.
Kia tau ki a tatou katoa
Te atawhai o to tatou ariki a Ihu Karaiti
Me te aroha o te atua
Me te whiwhingatahitanga ki
te wairua tapu
Ake, ake ake ai

who have just set foot on this marae
Bring with you the memories of all our dead
and so many tears spilling forth nation-wide.
Look at our people working across the land spread out far and wide
Shaking is the ground, quivering is the sea.
Oh the love and the pain within me.
The ground shakes and quivers!

Moku mo aku takahanga
Hei hoa moku i te poho
O taku whare okioki
"I rest in the calm, still night.
The stars and the sky act as the cloak of God and becomes my place of rest.
The sparkling stars are out, so is the full moon.
They become my companions in my house of rest.
The clouds in the Milky Way are showing me my pathway.
They become my companions in my house of rest."
Ka waiata ki a Maria

Makere ana ngā here.
E rere wairua, e rere
Ki ngā ao o te rangi

Mahea ake ngā pōraruraru
Makere ana ngā here,
Makere ana ngā here.
Scattered by the wind, washed by the rain and transformed by the sun.
All doubts are swept away and all restraints are cast down.
Fly free spirit. Fly to the clouds in the heavens, transformed by the sun, with all doubts swept away and all restraints cast down. Yes, all restraints are cast down.
(Based on a Ngā Puhi whakatauki and developed into a waiata by Henare Mahanga of Ngati Hine, modified by Hirini Melbourne)
