Children are Our Treasure

Hutia te rito o te harakeke
Kei whea te komako e koits
E patai atu ahau ki a koe
He aha te mea nui o te Ao?
Ka kii mai koe
He tamariki, he tamariki, he tamariki

When you pluck from the flax plant
most tender shoot
From where will the bellbird sing?
Let me ask you,
What is the most important thing in
this world?
And you will reply
It is children, it is children, it is children.
