The Māori Battalion with the 2NZEF recorded a Christmas programme from the Middle East on 15 October 1942.
This is part of the hymn “Au, e Ihu” sung for the occasion by members of the Māori Battalion.
Au, e Ihu, tirohia
Arohaina iho rā
Whakaaetia ake āu
Ki tōu uma piri ai
I te wā e awhi ai
Ēnei ngaru kino nei
I te wā e keri ai
Enei āwhā kaha mai
Āmine
