Anthem

Omemi lyrics Romaji Translation
Wai 'A'ua, ma'a e mo'o mai

Aka kā o oioe tā'au ka'oa

Timatima maimai sē hakai'a e

Kora ma 'arōa ma hara o maria

God, watch over our island

Mighty root of all our brotherhood

Together with each other, let us build

Dignity, love, and a home of peace

/ɕẽ̞ŋɡad͡ʑe̞ɕʲikʉ

o̞kʉo̞kʉ tait͡ɕi

mʲinɕʲimʉ o̞ɡaɾʲi/

The lands and the nation—

Heaven flourish them;

The fertile expanses—

The people's hearts make prosperous

Wai, hanua kōtupotupo o au

Hakakā e 'uike o kai mai

Tauka e to'a a'o ia Oehā

'Ehō e, Sawaike ma'ai

O, my prosperous land

Strengthen us, your children

Lay claim to your history under the Southern Cross

Praise be to Good Sawaike

Ye mystic light upon the sea;

Blossom, O Omemi

Dawn after dawn
