    Online source:

    Kare ratou e pakari, mei a ratou e vai nei, e pakari atu ra.

    Kare e tuatua e akaroi ia ratou, kare katoa te mataiti, e akaapa ia ratou.

    Mei te ra e opu atu ra i te aiai, e te itianga mai o te ra i te popongi.

    E akamaara tatou ia ratou.


    English Version:

    They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;

    Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

    At the going down of the sun and in the morning,

    We will remember them.
