"God Defend New Zealand" is one of two national anthems of New Zealand, the other being "God Save the Queen". Legally the two have equal status, but "God Defend New Zealand" is more commonly used. Originally written as a poem, it was set to music as part of a competition in 1876. Over the years its popularity increased, and it was eventually named the second national anthem in 1977. It has English and Māori lyrics, with slightly different meanings. Since the late 1990s, the usual practice when performed in public is to perform the first verse of the national anthem twice, first in Māori and then in English.

MAORI: Ko E Ihowa Atua te ngaringari a te motu o Aotearoa. E rima ngā whiti o te waiata nei. Nā Thomas Bracken ngā kupu pākehā i tuhituhi i ngā tau 1870. Nō te tau 1876, ka tū tētahi whakataetae ki te titonga o te rangi; mā te toa e whiwhi i te tekau pauna, me te tekau herengi. Nā John Joseph Woods te rangi; nāna i tuhituhi i te ahiahi i tae mai ai te rongo mō te whakataetae nei. Nō te tau 1848, ka pau te manatārua ki ngā kupu reo Pākehā.
