Hirinini Melbourne modified this song in remembrance for one of his University of Waikato students, Kiwi Tuteao, who died after going through a lot of adversity.
The first line has a phrase from the well-known proverb 'Hoki atu ki tōu maunga kia purea ai e koe ki ngā hau o Tāwhirimātea.' - Return to your mountain to be cleansed by the winds of Tāwhirimātea
The second line is from another version of that proverb 'Hoki kia purea koe e nga hau o ou maunga, kia horoia koe e te ua' - Let the winds of your mountains cleanse you, let the rain wash you, and the third line recalls the ancient phrase 'E whiti e te Ra! The Sun Shines!
This version of the Purea Nei song is performed by the Hono Collective featuring Elias Ashby and Ms Ava Walker.

Lyrics:
Purea nei e te hau
Scattered by the wind
Horoia
Washed
Horoia e te ua
Washed by the rain
Whitiwhitia
Transformed
Whitiwhitia e te rā
Transformed by the sun
e te rā
by the sun
Mahea ake ngā pōraruraru
Swept away are all anxieties
pōraruraru
anxieties
Makere ana ngā here
Removed are all restraints
E rere wairua, e rere
Fly free spirit, fly
Ki ngā ao
to the clouds
Ki ngā ao o te rangi
to the clouds in the heavens
Whitiwhitia
Transformed
Whitiwhitia e te rā
Transformed by the sun
Mahea ake ngā pōraruraru
Swept away are all anxieties
pōraruraru
Anxieties
Makere ana ngā here
Removed are all restraints
Makere ana ngā here
Removed are all restraints
