I live in Canada and am fast becoming addicted to listening to these beautiful songs. Oh how I would love to visit and see the real thing!! I especially love how all ages participate.
there is something particularly exceptional to see these dances and songs, i can feel the pride and strength in their faces when waving hands but above all the body language that communicates many things. Perhaps who more than us "ITALIANS" can understand this language? we speak different languages but as if it were a thread of DNA that connects us .. I love New Zealand .. hug all of you
One of my favourite waiata, Kotiro Maori E, raised in Heretaunga, Hawkes Bay, Ngati Kahungunu Iwi, hapu love this waiata, Aunty Mane Edwards taught me this song, at Korongata, Bridge Pa 1970 xo
Man. Marie Edwards. Haven’t heard her name in years. Korongata was my stake growing up too. My favorite waiata. Can’t remember if I learned this in Hastings or at PCC in Laie, Hawaii with Uncle Tommy in the early ‘80s. Now I live in Southern California. Ngsti Kahungunu proud.
love this seeing all the different ages doing what Maori like to do sing together. Love this and miss the days when I was involved such things. Still remember the words too LOL.
Ko rongo mai wahine ... He tohu rangatira me to ratou tu rangatirangatanga ai mo nga waahine puta noa o te motu. Na nga waahine Maori o Aotearoa i ea ai ratou kia tu i roto i te paaremata♥️.
Not knowing who sings it would be difficult to say New-Zealand or Hawaii. Polynesians songs and dances are so amazing. This summer I'll be vacationing in Maui, can't wait.
This is a traditional New Zealand song from the East Coast ways it's been around for ever. Hawai'i is different but can see how you would think it's similar.
This is a fantastic version written by Tommy Taurima of Hawke's Bay about New Zealand history, but in actual fact was originally a Hawaiian song penned in 1893 in response to the overthrow of the Hawaiian Queen by the US.
I just love this one... Listen to it everyday now. I just love their voices..The melody is now in my head, I'm learning slowly slowly the lyrics 😊🙃 to sing along and think of my planned 2020 Aotearoa trip 😍 Thank You for posting this beautiful waiata and the lyrics @King Country Kiwi. Now the rest of the world can also enjoy your songs/music/culture ❣️Blessings from Am*dam Holland ❌❌❌
Unfortunately this 2024 Coalition govt has set about removing any and all traces of the indigenous Māori culture by reinterpreting the Treaty of Waitangi - an agreement between Māori & the Crown - WITHOUT MĀORI INPUT. The uniqueness of our Māori culture sets Aotearoa NZ apart from the world. We would merely be another European outcrop without MĀORI.
Ki nga whaea, kotiro, tama o Ngati Kahungungu me ta koutou whapiataata I tenei waiata ataahua o to hapu iwi hoki. Nga mihi ki a koutou mai I a ahau o Ngai Tuhoe.
The melody is the same as Kaulana Na Pua, the defiant Hawaiian mele written by Ellen Pendergast in 1893 after the overthrow of the Hawaiian MonarchyWhat's this one about?
This song was composed by Tommy taurima and is to do with the courtship I believe between rongomaiwahine and kahungunu. He wrote this waiata while he was in Hawaii as a teacher of hula longing for home so he probably got permission to use the tune while he was there.
Beautiful...but just wondering who taught y'all those actions, the actions I grew up with from Mahia Mai Tawhiti are totally different, and we were taught by Tommy himself...or are there many variations??
Every iwi has their own variation of most waiata, especially when it comes down to our Maori ingenuity of 'Can't remember that action? Ah well, make a new one'. :p

Kia ora Ehoa.Ka pai e waiata = Hello my friend Very good song.
Back in the day nothing was written. This was how waiata/songs were handed down through generations.
Please visit welcome
. Love those who appreciate nga waiata O Māori. The songs of Māori.

I love it that they took inspiration from Hawai’is Kaulana nā Pua
No they did not get inspired by Hawaii
@@peetak5597 Yes, it inspired from the Hawaiian tunbe - You even from Ngāti Kahungunu? I
@@peetak5597check before commenting bud!! tune is from a Hawaiian waiata.

The melody is the same as Kaulana Na Pua, the defiant Hawaiian mele written by Ellen Pendergast in 1893 after the overthrow of the Hawaiian MonarchyWhat's this one about?
yup you are right. The tune is originally Kanaka Maoli...someone is failing to give our cousins props.

Such a beautiful song!

Same mate, I'm from Te Whanau A Apanaui where I was taught this waiata in the 80's (long ago now lol), the actions are similar.
I am from mahia and when I hear this song i get a little homesick I guess there is so many different actions to it but it's all good 😊
ngati kahungunu are the ones to ask
The tune was taken from our Hawaiian cousins.
