Kei te wera te kānara
Te reka o te kakara
Kanikani hahana muramura
Ki tēnei waiata auē
Kei te kaute ngā hēkona ki te ata
o te rua tekau mā rima o Hakihea auē
Kei te wera te ahi
E moemoeā ki te huihui
Rikoriko ngā whetū muramura
Ki tēnei waiata auē
Muramura - a translation
The candle is lit
The scent, so sweet
Dance bright flame
To this song
Counting down the seconds to the
morning of the twenty fifth of December
The fire is lit
Dreaming of meeting again
Twinkle bright stars
To this song
