If you would like to sing along to our Matariki Waiata - here are the words to practice at home.

Matariki mai to aroha

Matariki mai to aroha 

Piata mai i te pō 

Matariki piata-ata 

Matariki piata-ata 

Ki runga ki a mātou e 

Tō aroha, karere ki te ao

Puritia-hi kia mau

Matariki he taonga

Matariki piata-ata

Ki runga ki a mātou e

Horahia koe ki te whenua

Hei-Maramantanga mo te mo tu

Matariki he taonga

Matariki piata-ata

Ki runga ki a mātou e

Matariki mai to aroooooohaaaaaaa.

All the love of Matariki shines down on us.

Shines down on all of us.

Your love is all over the country which we will hold onto.

Shines down on all of us.

You shine all over the land,

So that the country will get the understanding of Matariki.
