Waewae tapu takahi te ara taua - (Footsteps pound the sacred warpath) Ka hopungia e maha nga upoko - (Many heads are sought) Ka hopungia e maha taurekareka - (Many slaves are sought) E mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga - (This is the work of Tūmatauenga)

He pakanga nunui mo te whakautu - (A mighty battle to avenge us) Tae mai nga tūpuna mo te whakaāwhina - (Our ancestors gather to assist us) Kia mau nga Tohunga mo te whakakarakia - (Our priests prepare the incantations) E mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga - (This is the work of Tūmatauenga)

A Tūmatauenga x4 - (Of Tūmatauenga) Mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga x4 - (This is the work of Tūmatauenga)
Whakatangi o nga pū, whakapatu nga taiaha - (The cry of guns, the blows of the taiaha) Te kikokiko rekareka ō aku hoariri - (The sweet flesh of our enemies) Nga umu whakakīa tātau kōpū ki te utu - (The ovens fill our bellies with revenge) E mahi nga mahi a Tūmatauenga - (This is the work of Tūmatauenga)
