Kapa Haka Exchange 2020

He kupu o ngā Waiata me haka

Mate korona e

Me he Manu Rere- Waiata Poi 

Me he manu rere ahau e

Kua rere ki to moenga

Ki te awhi to tinana

Aue aue e

Te tau tahuri mai

Ko te Manu Nei

Ko te manu nei

Ko te piwaiwaka

E tutu ana i runga te totara

Kia whaiwhai ngangara

Tahurihuri ana

He manu iti ka whiowhio

He karere o hine nui te po

E ai te korero

O nehera eeeee

Tane mahuta te atua

O te ngahere-eeee

Te kaitiaki o nga rakau me 

Nga manu nei aueeeee

Te potiki o papa-tua-nuku

Me ranginui e

Panaia te rangi e ona waewae e

Ka piki atu ki te rangi tuhaha e

Ka riro nga kete wananga nei

Ka puta ko te ao marama eeee aueeee

Tai Aroha

Ko te aroha anō he wai 

E pupū ake ana 

He awa e māpuna mai ana 

I roto i te whatu-manawa (x2)

Ko tōna mātāpuna he hōhonu 

Ā inā ia ka rere anō (x2) 

He tai timu 

He tai pari 

He tai ope 

He tai roa 

He tai nui
