Rugby Ritual

i thought hakas wernt all the same, go on youtube and search haka, they seem to vary.

But the one used by the All Blacks - the Ka mate haka - is the most known haka.

WAS used by the All Blacks. Last year they introduced a new haka - Kapa O Pango - which I think they might use now instead.

i like the samoan cipi tao best

NEW-ZELAND, HE TOLD YOU!!!! rea

it is actualy the moari war dance and when a moari dose this it means get ready but they sang it wrong and well the scotish thought it differently and flashed them, so they to us a fearless the way they did it so calmly. I am a new zearlander also known as a kiwi one of our native birds that can't fly but i am not a moari i am just a kiwi you might also know of New zealand to be free and green and loard of the rings was made here made New zealand famos

that you lack basic grammer skills, being a New Zealander, you should also know that it's spelt Maori.

Ahhh, nothing like the All Blacks Haka. Here's the real one. Pardon the spelling. An old Adidas commercial has it as well.


KAMATE KAMATE KA'ORA!
KAMATE KAMATE KA'ORA!
TENEI TE TANGATA PU'RU HURU
NA'A NEI TIKI MAI WAKA-WITI TE RA!
HUPANE! KA HUPANE! A HUPANE! KA HUPANE!
WITI TE RA!

as it is incorrect - but very good if it's only from memory. Just thought I would provide the translation for those curious. The Ka mate! haka ( in English ) goes like this -

Tis death! Tis death!
Tis life! Tis life!
Tis death! Tis death!
Tis life! Tis life!
Behold! There stands the hairy man
Who will cause the sun to shine!
One step upwards...
another step upwards
The sun shines!

Alternate version - It is death, it is death: it is life, it is life; this is the man who enabled me to live as I climb up step by step toward sunlight.

Remember your ancestors,didn't anyone tell you,never let anyone know,what our people speak in the maori war chant,it's 4 our ears only,careful what you say......

You seem to know a lot about rugby and new zealand, but you obviously don't know anything about PUNCTUATION!!! Your entire paragraph was incredibly difficult to understand as a result! (Punctuation- ; : ' ' " " . , ? ! / \ [ ] { } )

Can't spell either.
