The Te Rauparaha Haka (The Maori War Dance performed by the New Zealand All Blacks)
Ringa pakia
Uma tiraha
Turi whatia
Hope whai ake
Waewae takahia kia kino
Ka Mate! Ka Mate! Ka Ora!
Ka Mate! Ka Mate! Ka Ora!
Tenei te ta ngata puhuru huru
Nana i tiki mai
Whakawhiti te ra
A upane ka upane!
A upane kaupane whiti te ra!
Hi!!
It is a truly awesome sight to watch the All Blacks do this, Kees Meeuws and King Carlos have the best versions of the Haka in my opinion. Hell, it's even made a little part of a new Gatorade commercial here in the States.
