Whanganui-mumu
Whanganui-mumu
Ka rongo ngā taringa i ngā ngaru whati mai
He ngaru tāngata
He ngaru wairua
He ngaru rangatira

Nau mai ki te kutakitanga o ngā awa o Ōtara, o
Waioweka
E rere mananui atu nei ki te Moana-a-Toi

Nau mai haere mai ki tēnei whare tapu
Nau mai haere mai ki tēnei whare o Te Atua

I hear the waves that break beyond
It is a wave of people
It is a wave of spirits
It is a wave of chiefs

Welcome to the place where the rivers of Ōtara 
and Waioweka converge
As they flow so majestically to the Pacific Ocean

Welcome to this holy place
