Karakia
KARAKIA TIMATANGA
Whakatuwheratia mai te kuaha
Whakatuwheratia mai te kuaha,
o te pono, o te tika, o te matauranga, me te aroha.
A ma matou e whakamoemiti
e whakakororiatia tou ingoa tapu
ake, ake, ake
Amine
Open the door
of truth, righteousness, of knowledge and love
through us, we are praising
glory to your name
forever and ever
Amen
Whakataka te hau ki te uru
Whakataka te hau ki te uru,
Whakataka te hau ki te tonga
Kia makinakina ki uta
Kia mataratara ki tae
E hi ake ana te atakura
He tio, he huka he hauhunga
Tihei Mauri Ora
Cease the winds from the West
Cease the winds from the South
Let the breezes blow over the land
Let the breezes blow over the ocean
Let the red-tipped dawn come
With a sharpened air, a touch of frost, a promise of a glorious day
Behold the breath of life
Whakataka te hau ki te uru,
Whakataka te hau ki te tonga.
Kia mākinakina ki uta,
Kia mātaratara ki tai.
E hī ake ana te atākura he tio,
he huka, he hauhunga.
Haumi e! Hui e! Tāiki e!
Get ready for the westerly
and be prepared for the southerly.
It will be icy cold inland,
and icy cold on the shore.
May the dawn rise red-tipped on ice,
on snow, on frost.
Join! Gather! Intertwine!
Whiti ora ki te whei ao

Cross over to life in the changing world
in the world of light and understanding.
Cross upwards, cross downwards.
Turn to the rock
turn to the tree
leaning to this side
leaning to that side.
He honore, he kororia ki te Atua
He honore, he kororia ki te Atua
He maungarongo ki te whenua
He whakaaro pai ki nga tangata katoa
Hanga e te Atua, he ngakau hou
Ki roto, ki tena, ki tena matou
Whakatongia to wairua tapu
He awhina, hei tohutohu i a matou
Hei ako hoki i nga mahi i tenei ra
Amine
All honour and glory to God
Let there be peace on earth and tranquility
Goodwill to all people
Amen
KARAKIA WHAKAMUTUNGA
Kia tau, ki a tätou katoa
Kia tau, ki a tätou katoa
Te atawhai o tö tätou Ariki a Ihu Karaiti
Me te aroha o te Atua
Me te whiwhingatahitanga ki te wairua tapu
Amine.
May we all join peacefully
Through the love and support of our Lord, Jesus Christ
and the love of God
and the unity as one through the holy spirit
Amen

Whakapaingia ēnei kai
E te Atua
Whakapaingia ēnei kai
Hei oranga mō o mātou tinana
Whangaia o mātou wairua
Ki te tara o te ora

KARAKIA A TE ATUA (The Lord's Prayer)
E to matou matua i te rangi
Kia tapu tou ingoa
Kia tae mai tou rangatiratanga
Kia meatia tau e pai ai
Ki runga ki te whenua
Kia rite ano ki to te rangi
Homai ki a matou aianei
He taro ma matou mo tenei ra
Murua o matou hara
Me matou hoki e muru nei
I o te hunga e hara ana
Ki a matou
Aua hoki matou e kawea kia whakawaia
Engari whakaorangia matou i te kino
Nau hoki te rangatiratanga te kaha me te kororia
Ake, ake ake
Amine
Our Father which art in Heaven
Hallowed by Thy name
Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done
In Earth
As it is in Heaven
Give us this day
Our daily bread
Forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive
Those who trespass
Against us
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from Evil
The strength and the glory
Forever and ever
Amen
Karakia / Blessing to set up our day.
Written by Patrick Gemmell for Pt England School
Ki ngā hau o ngā rangi mai tawhiti
E rere iho nei ki te moana
Kawea nei i o mātou whakaaro
Hei whetū mārama
Mo ngā mahi kei te whai mai.
Kōkiri tōku hāere
I te ao e, i te ao e …
To the prevailing wind which ascend from afar
Toward a coastal tide
Carry with you our inner thoughts
Imprint them among the heavens, as a guiding constellation
For the tasks ahead
To strengthen my journey
Each day, each day …
