Music: John Joseph Woods

English Lyrics: Thomas Bracken

Maori Lyrics: Thomas Henry Smith


God of nations at thy feet

In the bonds of love we meet.

Hear our voices, we entreat,

God defend our free land.

Guard Pacific's triple star

From the shafts of strife and war,

Make her praises heard afar,

God defend New Zealand.


E Ihoa Atua,

O nga Iwi! Matoura,

Ata whakarongona;

Me aroha roa.

Kia hua ko te pai;

Kia tau to atawhai;

Manaakitia mai

Aotearoa.


Men of every creed and race

Gather here before thy face,

Asking thee to bless this place,

God defend our free land.

From dissension, envy, hate,

And corruption guard our state,

Make our country good and great,

God defend New Zealand.
