Hymna Nového Zélandu je rovna hymně Spojeného království, God Save the Queen, ale tradičně se zpívá pouze ta novozélandská a to první sloka v angličtině nebo při oficiálních sportovních zápasech v maorštině.
| God of Nations at Thy feet
| E Ihowā Atua
| Bože národů, u Tvých nohou
|
| In the bonds of love we meet
| O ngā iwi mātou rā
| V poutech lásky se setkáváme
|
| Hear our voices, we entreat
| Āta whakarongona
| Slyš naše hlasy, prosíme tě
|
| God defend our free land
| Me aroha noa
| Bože, chraň naši svobodnou zemi
|
| Guard Pacific's triple star
| Kia hua ko te pai
| Střež trojitou hvězdu Tichomoří (Pacifiku)
|
| From the shafts of strife and war
| Kia tau tō atawhai
| od hřídel sporu a válek
|
| Make her praises heard afar
| Manaakitia mai
| Ať její chvály znějí daleko
|

| Iwi nō Ihowā
|
|
| Guide her in the nations' van
| Kaua mōna whakamā
|
|
| Preaching love and truth to man
| Kia hau te ingoa
|
|
| Working out Thy Glorious plan
| Kia tū hei tauira
