Flax

Unuhia te rito o te harakeke kei whea te kōmako e ko?
Whakataerangitia – rere ki uta, rere ki tai;
Ui mai koe ki ahau he aha te mea nui o te ao,
Māku e kī atu he tangata, he tangata, he tangata!

Take away the heart of the flax bush
and where will the komako sing?
Proclaim it to the land, proclaim it to the sea,
Ask me what is the greatest thing in the world,
I will reply
It is people, it is people, it is people!
