As a mark of respect for the fallen, the Ode is recited at all New Zealand RSAs.

When The Ode is recited please stand still and quiet for these few minutes.

    They shall grow not old
    As we that are left grow old
    Age shall not weary them
    Nor the years condemn
    At the going down of the sun
    And the morning
    We will remember them

    E kore ratou e kaumatuatia
    Penei ia tatou e mahue nei
    E kore hoki ratou e ngoikore
    Ahakoa, pehea I nga ahuatanga o te wa
    I te hekenga atu o te ra
    Tae noa ki te aranga mai I te ata
    Ka maumahara tonu tatou kia ratou
