Haka.avi - this is the maori war dance

Ka mate         Ka mate
It is death     It is death

Ka ora          Ka ora
It is life      It is life

Ka mate         Ka mate
It is death     It is death

Ka ora          Ka ora
It is life      It is life

Tenei Te Tangata Puhuruhuru
This is the hairy man

Nana i tiki mai whakawhiti te ra
Who caused the sun to shine again for me

Upane           Upane
Up the ladder   Up the ladder

Upane   Kaupane
Up to the top

Whiti te ra
The sun shines!
