E ngā mana, e ngā reo, e raurangatira mā!
Tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou katoa!
Mai Te Rua Mahara o te Kāwanatanga e mihi atu, e mihi atu, e mihi atu
Nau mai, haere mai, whakatau mai rā 
Ki te whakarongo ki ngā hua, ki ngā Taonga
E noho ana i ngā pātaka o Te Rua Mahara o Te Kāwanatanga 
Nau mai, haere mai, whakatau mai rā!  

To the distinguished guests, to the many people (gathered here)!

That are housed and stored in the repositories of Archives New Zealand
Welcome, welcome, welcome!    

A short film showcasing the Wellington repository of Archives New Zealand. It shows 'behind-the-scenes' footage of the staff-only 'stacks', staff and conservators, the He Tohu exhibition and work on the 1893 Women's Suffrage Petition, and examples of archives with te reo Māori.
