Tēnā koutou ngā uri o āpōpō. He karere tēnei nō te tau 2025, he tohu aroha, he tohu maumahara hoki. E tū tonu ana tō tātou reo rangatira, ā, ko tōku wawata kia kaha ake te reo i roto i ngā tau e rima tekau e heke mai nei. Kia maumahara, ko te reo te mauri o te mana Māori. Tiakina, akohia, whakamahia i ngā rā katoa. Mā te reo, ka ora te iwi.
Greetings to the descendants of tomorrow. This is a message from the year 2025, a sign of love and remembrance. Our treasured language still stands strong, and my hope is that in 50 years it will be even more alive. Remember, the language is the life force of Māori identity. Protect it, learn it, and use it every day. Through the language, the people will thrive.
