"Ko Kahuranaki te maunga,ko Poukawa te waiu,ko Ngai Te Whatuiapiti te iwi"
"Kahuranaki is our (sacred mountain),(Lake) Poukawa is the source of our sustenance,Ngai Te Whatuiapiti is our tribe."

"Ko Kahuranaki te marae,Ko Te Hapuku Ika Nui O Te Moana te tangata"
"Kahuranaki is the marae, Te-Hapuku-Ika-Nui-O-Te-Moana is the chief"

"Haere koe i mua i te tuara o Te Hapuku,kia kai koe nga kai whakairo i te rangi."
"Go forth under the mantle of Te Hapuku, and you will eat of the food of gods"
